    You know the stanley saw horses (or other brands) plastic things that fold up... looking for 4 of these... last time I bought some I think I paid like 15 euro for 2... pricing them today they are 40 euro a pair which seemed a wee bit pricey.... anyone know a place that does these a bit cheaper....

    Thanks,
    Steven.

    Yeah I remember them popping up before and last minute they changed and were selling a heavy metal one instead... I hope they come up for sale soon!

    Make a set. they should last longer and if you make them well enough they will be far more impressive to lift out of the van.

    I thought about making a set but I have a feeling they will weigh a good bit more then the plastic ones and every bit of weight counts on the road.

    You will pick up a set in some builders providers for around 30 euro.

    I also saw them in Lidl or Aldi last week...cant remember which store as I was in both stores in the 1 day.

    I ordered me some of these http://www.iedepot.ie/foldable_metal_sawhorses/
    easy for storage and only need two compared to 4 plastic ones due to the longer width
