Free Plans: The Two-Board Shavehorse
Added 2021-07-21 15:54:42 +0000 UTCFriends:
I'm really excited to bring you these shavehorse plans. These are some of the longest and most detailed plans we've ever done. I worked with my designer to make every step clear and every measurement easy to read. These plans will walk you through every part of the build with total confidence.
Of course, these plans are completely FREE to Patrons (everyone else pays.)
If you'd like to look at older plans, they're all on the Discourse Plan Archive and ready for immediate download.
New video Saturday!

I had thought about the same, and have been trying to think through how it would fit/work, be removable, and still would do what I want it to. Got sidetracked for a while building the English Joiner's Bench, which turned out nicely, (complete with that monstrous leg vise) then some physical problems, but I've got all the wood and hardware together now for the two board version, and I think I'll go ahead with that one.

2021-07-22 10:59:59 +0000 UTCmany thanks Rex. just mentioning this because you might be interested: there's a Japanese-designed folding shavehorse somewhat similar to yours -- certainly the same materials and much the same design goals -- called the Origami Shavehorse which might be worth checking out. i have a PDF of it but unfortunately there are no translations on it, Japanese only. a few years ago they were offering the PDF for sale, not sure what the current status of that is.

2021-07-21 22:14:58 +0000 UTCHaving metric is a necessity. My country should be on metric....although I do really favor Imperial for building by hand.
