msaxton Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Gotta love Goodwill stores, today I found these premade hard heavy duty plastic strongback stands for $4.00 for the pair, they are kind of like sawhorse brackets but much more heavy duty. I searched for them online and wasnt able to find anything like them. I was skeptical, but for $4 i got them and started putting them together, the 2x4's fit perfectly tight and solid, has spots for several braces to be attached and im actually surprised how sturdy they are. you put a beam together that goes on top and then there are spots for angled bracket to solidify the beam. Has anybody ever seen these or used them? these thing are going to save me some time building my strongback. Has the word Strongback right on them, so im assuming thats what they are, because they just aren't shaped right for sawhorses. I did finally find Blitz brand sawhorse brackets that are similar, but these are built even more solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JReed Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 That looks like saw horse brackets. Should hold a strong back very nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msaxton Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 You guys gotta get some of these!They are Blitz sawhorse brackets after all, on second look today i found the brand name on them underneath. Built the strongback today, and I HIGHLY recommend these, man, it made a more solid strongback then the one i built years ago for my cedar strip canoe. Even before I added diagonal braces they were plenty solid, now with diagonal braces on it, this thing doesn't flex one single bit. Really saved time building it compared to a fully built one.
