They appear on <a href="http://www.timberframe-tools.com/tools/saw-bench-toddler-bench/" rel="nofollow">this post</a>. The only change I made to the plans was to drop the stretcher another two inches so that I could get clamps under it. I think you'll like this model better than Chris's models. It is more versatile. The only drawback compared to his is that it is heavier and takes up a bit more room. (the heavier part I see as a bonus). Hi Doc,

That looks pretty darn clever. I have been planning to build myself a couple of saw benches, and was thinking of using the Schwartz version, but I think I like this idea better. It keeps the center open. That could be useful for ripping. Did you by chance draw up any plans for your saw bench. That looks pretty darn clever.
