    I needed new shop horses to manage different projects and locations in my shop. I went to buy them, but realized they were too big for my (sometimes cramped) little shop.

    Sawhorses are as old as dirt but Diresta comes up with a fresh take and new design. The best.

  • @rockycon1967
    @rockycon1967 Před 9 lety

    Again Jimmy, I love your ingenious ways to help keep your shop "work". I myself work outta my truck and work trailer and have collapsing sawhorses that dont take up much room but these stackables are bang on.

    Was at Lowes tonight after seeing this video and they had a set of sawhorses that looked exactly like these. Always love seeing your videos Jimmy.

    The thing I like best about Diresta vids is that he'll start doing something and I have to scratch my head thinking, "what the crap is he doing?" and then 30 seconds later it will click and I get this great "OH! That's what that's for!" moment.

  • @sustainable7865
    @sustainable7865 Před 9 lety

    Really neat and slim saw horses that are truly stackable. Normally they tend to be of an design that actually take up equal space of an table or a workbench. Rally nice.

    At the DiResta R&D Laboratories, we are always looking for new ways to get more out of your day.
    For example, the table saw was at normal speed. With speed improvements like that, you can have 3 days' work done before Happy Hour at the local watering hole.

  • @elikia7759
    @elikia7759 Před 9 lety

    DiResta-
    Can you make a video on how to test a blade by shaving your arm hair? I've always wanted to learn how, and you do it all the time.

    • @matt420740
      @matt420740 Před 8 lety

      +Eli Kia All you have to do is find the right angle. Assuming the blade is sharp enough.
      And don't run the blade across your arm in a slicing motion, use a pushing/scraping type movement. When done properly its hard to cut yourself no matter how sharp the knife.

    • @smiteey
      @smiteey Před 9 lety +6

      It's common practice to have you name on your tools and equipment when you work in a shop so there aren't any mix ups, It's probably just something he's gotten used to doing.

    • @dannythefist6709
      @dannythefist6709 Před 9 lety +2

      He sort of explained why he does it in a video, he something along the lines of "Companies brand there name on there stuff why shouldn't I". Nothing wrong with being proud of his name/work.

    • @cupiddstunt
      @cupiddstunt Před 9 lety

      Daniel Faust I agree there is "nothing wrong with being proud of his work/name" i just feel that stencilling his name on things he had no hand in the manufacture of like the power tools and such just reek of ego running wild.

  • @ernie5229
    @ernie5229 Před 9 lety

    I do not see how these are stackable unless each sawhorse is slightly narrower than the one on top of it. The end braces would not allow them to stack if they are identical in size.
    You would have to keep track of which sawhorse is in use and which ones can be stacked. While the design is simple, the application is over complicated.

    • @abrannan
      @abrannan Před 9 lety +2

      ??? The legs splay out in two directions, so the end caps aren't in the way at all. Each sawhorse is identical to the others and they stack just fine.

  • @SkullyWoodMetal

      Its called self branding. Jimmy doesn't work for a company, so he puts a lot of work into getting his name out there so that when people think of a contracting job, they might think of his name and give him a call.

    • @tcseacliff

    • @MarkLindsayCNC
      @MarkLindsayCNC Před 9 lety +3

      Amra All of that is true. It's also easy, immediate, unquestionable identification of what belongs to who on a jobsite. If you've ever worked a construction site, no matter how big or small, you quickly realize that things that aren't marked in big, bold letters that stand out "sprout legs and walk away."

    • @tcseacliff
      @tcseacliff Před 9 lety +1

      absolutely! and he is doing online videos, so , why advertise others, advertise YOUR name, and for people that see you in your shop or working out in public! name recognition!-BRANDING!
