Building a Japanese Workbench

Speaking of Nik Brown, he did a terrific writeup for Get Woodworking Week on building Japanese style sawhorses that serve as a basis for his workbench.

I have a pair of sawhorses that are made from 2x4’s screwed into sheet metal brackets that I got from the local borg. Boy, am I embarrassed.
