Timber Framing Saw Pony plan

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


I've built four of these little ponies from reclaimed lumber. They are very strong, handy, and versatile, especially in pairs. Apparently they are commonly used in timber-framing to store and work timbers. In spite of how common I would expect plans for these to be, they are almost impossible to find. I sketched up this rough plan from a Youtube video produced by “Wranglerstar”, who demonstrates how to build them. Rather than waste your time with photos of the ones I built for myself, I think it is more useful to give you the plans to build your own. The plans can be easily modified to suit whatever changes you might like to make, including wider lumber, and taller ponies. Cheap, strong, quick and easy to build, simple, relatively stable, and very useful. To be recommended. I'm using two of mine with a plank running across to hold potted plants for the summer on my deck.
