Usable with reworking

I have bought this sawhorse about 8 months ago and was quite happy with it for a short time. The disillusionment came fairly quickly, however, when I came with the chain running on one of the sharp metal edges, resulting in a "flash stunt" meant. The saw, a 110-Euro-cheap thing of Gardena, after that worked a short while with significant transmission noise; after about 30 minutes, however, further operation was finally concluded (gearbox failure; repair would be at the Gardena-part, with which I was not too happy anyway, not worth it).
Since I did not want to take that risk at the next saw again (and quite believe that a saw should always be factored into the crossbars both the manufacturer and the user), I bought this to the Wolfcraft 5121000, in which (as with all high end blocks) such a thing can not happen, but had to turn find that even that is not a panacea is: is for sawing thick and heavy trunks of any more suitable as for anything that is not grown straight. So I'm going, where it is convenient, my Atika continue to use, but with a crucial modification:
Necessarily be screwed onto the crossbars sheets per a wooden plank of at least 15 cm width and 10 mm thickness. Then the goat is folded not so limp, but above all has accidentally saw in the boards no longer the sudden Sägentod result.

Otherwise, in brief:

Positives:
- This Bock is stable enough to safely work with it. Although folded pretty limp and therefore be handled with some caution, but once set up, you can even heavy meter pieces fall into the retaining teeth with proper momentum. Also during sawing offer the wide angle state and the double-sided folded sheets fed up enough stability.
- The sawing of logs from single stem sections are very fast in this design principle, since the tribes need not be issued; another fixation is not necessary. As "compensation" however, is the sawing of several parent sections simultaneously or even thinner branches (the jump pretty wild through the area) is not possible; Here is a block with fixing inevitable.

Negatives:
- As I said: If you want to risk not constantly bearing, gearbox and / or clutch his saw, must create and retrofitted by the manufacturer 'forgotten' boards here only once more hand (and money). Or even a young goat wooden buy (which also comes not expensive when it does not have to be just a Stihl or Gillitzer).
- The assembly is unnecessarily cumbersome because all supplied nuts are self-fixing, also for the rigid connections. Significantly more comfortable, better and long-term-compatible (and likely cheaper than more expensive) would have to settle matching cap nuts for rigid connections normal nuts and hinges.
- Had the Bock plastic caps on the feet, you could also install it on the meadow, without being inevitably digs while working. At the plate edges it is unfortunately as on pinches.

Once again, I would not buy this sawhorse. The Wolfcraft 5121000 at twice the price, although, unfortunately, no adequate alternative, but if I'm going to again buy a folding block which will be made of wood.
