Clever, Practical Design Makes Jobs Easier
Whether you're an occasional do-it-yourselfer or a professional contractor, the Jawhorse will clamp virtually anything you can imagine. The Jawhorse's serious clamping power lets you accomplish tasks that normally require two people on your own.

The strong and versatile Jawhorse can replace your workbenches, sawhorses, clamps, bench vises, and much more. You can use it to hold work materials in place as you tackle jobs like setting fence posts, hanging doors, installing crown moldings, and placing new sheetrock overhead. Even odd-shaped objects like engine blocks can fit neatly in the Jawhorse's grip.

Apply up to 2,200 Pounds of Force--Hands Free
The Jawhorse features a trademarked hands-free foot pedal that lets you apply up to one metric ton (2,200 pounds) of force, so you don't have to worry about materials slipping while you work. And the jaws can be opened up to 37-inches wide, which is enough to hold most doors securely in place. This gives you maximum flexibility on the job.

The Jawhorse also eliminates the need for individual saw stands and complicated vices. A variety of different saws can be locked into the sturdy jaws on this station, allowing you to make precise cuts quickly and safely--no awkward balancing of large boards or one-handed saw operation required. Patented rubber pads help keep you from denting or scratching wood the way you might using traditional vice clamps, making the Jawhorse ideal for finish work.

Durable, Dependable, and Easy to Transport or Store
The Jawhorse features solid all-steel construction along with an extra-wide stance, providing exceptional strength and stability in a wide variety of conditions. There are no moving plastic parts to break. And with a unique, three-legged design, the Jawhorse is easier to balance on uneven terrain than traditional four-legged sawhorses and mobile workbenches.

The Jawhorse is incredibly simple to use. You just set it up, lock it in place, and clamp your project materials or tools down. This quick and easy setup makes the Jawhorse ideal for use on remote worksites and for people who don't have the space in their busy home or apartment for a permanent workbench.

When not in use, the workstation folds down to a compact 29x14x13 inches for easy transport or storage in a small closet. And weighing in at just 43 pounds, it is easy to lift in and out of work rigs.

When unfolded, an integrated roller makes it incredibly easy to move around the workshop or the jobsite. There are holes in two of the three feet so that you can choose to bolt the Jawhorse down for frequent use in your workshop or on big job sites that require more permanence.

Available Accessories Provide Even Greater Versatility
Versatile accessories (sold separately) let you customize the Jawhorse to better meet your individual needs. You can use the Welding jaw to set up a full welding station. The Chainsaw jaw makes it easy to lock saws in place for sharpening, and Saddlebags let you keep all your tools neatly organized and within arms reach. You can also use the Plywood jaw to adapt the Jawhorse for large sheet goods up to 52-inches wide, or set up the Jawhorse as a reliable Miter Saw Station or a more permanent Work Table.

5 out of 5 stars Jawhorse   September 8, 2010
John L. Penna (PA)
I've been using the Jawhorse for about a month and it's great! It's truly a second set of hands. Great product.

We checked two big box stores for the Jawhorse and they did not have them or none in stock. I saw the item at Amazon.com and ordered it, received it within a few day - FREE SHIPPING! My husband had it put together in a matter of minutes and loves it, easy to store and very strong.

5 out of 5 stars Worth the money   September 4, 2010
Jessie
I bought this to replace 2 cheaper portable saw stands I bought from Costco. This was significantly more expensive, but you get what you pay for. Compared to my other stands, the Jawhorse is extremely stable and actually folds into a much smaller package (which was important for me as I live in an apartment). The extra plus for me was that I was considering getting a vice at the time, but am reluctant to clamp it on to any of my normal furniture (lacking a real workbench) for fear that it would mar this surface.

Pros:

* Very solid, no give on this item
* Vice works well
* Easy to lock items into place
* Folds into a very small package, which can be laid flat or stood vertically depending on where it is stored

Cons:

* Would be nice if the sliding mechanism used bearings rather than sliding along and scratching the paint.
* Paint is not as high quality as possible, will wear eventually.

I've only had this thing for a week and have already used it for 3 random projects. Overall, these are fantastic value for money.



5 out of 5 stars Great tool   August 1, 2010
Jeff Martin (Tujunga, CA)
I have now used this product for several projects and can say it does everything the pictures show and more. If you have a project where you need an extra hand and this happens to you quite often, it will be a great investment and fix to those frustrating situations. I have used it for cutting logs (without the log attachment), hold lumber (for cutting or a 2 x 4 for an extra hand when installing crown molding), sharpen tools, etc. Anything a vice can do this can do and much more.

Keep in mind that it is quite heavy and this may be a deterent at times when you don't want to lug it around, but usually when I try doing without I end up using it anyway. The fact is, if you want it to be able to hold heavy things then it too has to be heavy. For those of you who own a Little Giant ladder system you know that it can be heavy to move around, but when you're standing on it you feel like your standing on something solid. This clamp/sawhorse is equivalent to that same feeling of comfort and security. The clamping power and stablilty is pretty amazing.

One other thing I might add is that it can be a little clumsy folding it up, mainly due to the weight, but once you figure out a method that is easy for you it won't be a problem. I tend to tip it over on the two legged end and fold the legs in and up. The majority of the weight is the horizontal portion. Do not try and be slick and fold the legs first or else you might just be dropping it on your foot like me. I say all this because the instructions are weak at best, but if your a guy you don't need instructions anyway right?



5 out of 5 stars Built like a tank!   July 25, 2010

3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The Rockwell Jawhorse is built like a tank. I know, I already said that, but it bears repeating. Such a joy to find a product made of metal, not that plastic is bad for some things, but there are no corners cut here; nothing cheap or flimsy. The design makes it easy to use and workable by one person, which makes it a great asset to the one-man/woman worker/craftsman etc.

Only thing that may have made it 'perfect' (if there is such a thing) would be the capability (out of the box) to open wide enough to grasp a sheet of plywood/paneling out of the box, instead of having to purchase an extension that is nearly a third of the street cost of the original jawhorse. Think about it, this product is designed and marketed to home handi-folks, wood-workers, and contractors. Who of those don't deal with 4x8 sheets of material often? I can see the welding, and round wood and other specialty jaws etc, but having to pay extra for a 48" wide 'jaw' is a shame.

That minor rant aside, the Rockwell Jawhorse is a must have tool, especially for those who work alone on jobs, or in their own workshop. Mine has been used daily since it was delivered a couple of weeks ago.
