What Can You Do With the Portable Rockwell Jawhorse Clamping Workstation?

Every handyman eventually faces the problem of having to hold a large, heavy piece of lumber in place and then cut or drill it, etc. Unless you have a helper you can find it hard to hold the material and the tools at the same time. So you end up balancing the heavy object on the sawhorses and hoping it doesn't move when you start working on it. What you really need is a good way to support it and lock it in position at the same time. You may be lucky and have a nice workbench with a vise in your workshop, but if you are like most handyMen, you don't have that luxury and even if you did, you would probably have Jobs that required you to work away from your shop.

What you need is a good stable sawhorse that has a built-in vise made to hold heavy and bulky items securely. This must be what the folks at Rockwell thought too. They offer a solid steel sawhorse with a foot pedal operated vise jaw. They call it the Jawhorse.

The Jawhorse is a tripod base sawhorse that will hold up to 600 lbs. and has a powerful jaw that applies over a ton of force. The jaws on the vice open to 37 in. and can be tightened with your foot, leaving your hands free to steady the object and to actually work on it. The Jawhorse comes fully assembled and folds up for east transport and storage.

There are several accessories that convert the Jawhorse into a variety of workstations.

The plywood attachMent is designed to secure a sheet of plywood horizontally on the Jawhorse. If you are planning to do any work involving sheets of plywood you will want to order this accessory with your new Jawhorse. The miter saw platform holds a miter saw and comes with two rollers to support long pieces of wood that you might cut. Great if you do much cutting with a miter saw. A worktable attachMent provides a larger work surface that can clamp your project in place. I find this to be a great accessory because there are so many ways to use it. The welding workstation helps hold metal objects in position for welding. I'm not a welder, but if I were this looks like a great Jawhorse accessory. Another attachMent is the log jaws, which make holding small logs in place a breeze. So if you are doing some repAirs to your log fence, or just cutting up firewood or a fallen branch, you can hold it steady while you cut it. There are many uses for the Rockwell RK9000 Jawhorse workstation and it will soon become like your own personal assistant who is there to hold things for you while you work on them.

Hospital statistics have proven that most accidents occurwhen people try to do work in their own home. The accident is caused either by people not knowing what they are doing, or from using the wrong tools or equipMent. If for instance one places a heavy item such as a lawnmower or a heavy piece of furniture onto a makeshift work bench and the item cannot be securely clamped, or the work bench cannot take the weight then this is a recipe for disaster. This is an accident waiting to happen. Any item needing repAir whether it is big or small needs to be securely clamped to a jaw horse work station. The recognised weight one of these work stations should be capable of carrying is one ton. It should have a easy and quick release switch so items can be set down safely without causing any injury to the operator. It should be light for moving and veryeasy to store away when not in use. There should also be a saddle bag for storing tools attached so as everything is put in the right place.
