WEN 600 lbs. Capacity Portable Clamping Saw Horse Work Bench with Non-Marring Jaws – a Home Depot Seeds Program ReviewIt’s always good to have a portable workbench to get close to your work rather than bringing the work to a bench. Often I don’t want to set up my take down work bench outside of my shop because it’s heavy. Its weight makes it even more difficult to set it up in another area where I’m working. I need something that can handle some heavier work pieces though. The bench will need to replace my venerable (yet much maligned in some woodworking circles, Craftsman Workmate). The WEN 600 lbs. Capacity Portable Clamping Saw Horse Work Bench with Non-Marring Jaws is a pretty good choice for this.This is a pretty heavy duty work bench and is nearly all steel so I need to be careful not to hit it with a circular saw as I’ve done with my Workmate. The 3-point steel legs lock into place well and there’s very little play or wobble when set up. Set up from a storing position is pretty quick with only three locking points – one for each leg. At about 48 pounds it isn’t too heavy to easily move and the carrying handle makes it even easier. The work bench bed is reversible to expand the width. In the shortened mode the bed works for pieces that are a maximum of a little more than 16 inches wide. In the expanded mode the work piece can be about 40 inches. When clamped down with the foot pedal the pieces are very secure and can be worked with power tools without fear of slipping or falling out. The jaws are lined with a rubber or foam type material that helps secure the work piece and keeps from marking it when clamped tightly.I have other WEN products and have been pleased with them but never had an opportunity to use their technical support. I found them fast the respond and very helpful. It was unfortunate that I needed to use them. When broken down for storage or transport the back legs are held on place by a spring-loaded ball bearing but the hole on one of the legs was offset just a little too much to allow it to lock. Their tech support immediately offered to replace the bench but, since it doesn’t affect the operation of the bench, just the storage, I suggested I would try filing out the hole a little the allow the ball bearing to engage. Unfortunately, doing so made the hole a little large at the ball bearing can get pushed through it. Again, this doesn’t affect the operation or usability of the WEN Portable Clamping Saw Horse Work Bench, and it can be easily mitigated with a velcro strap or other means (I have an idea that may even be better than the solution WEN uses) to hold the leg in a locked position for storage. Another problem I have with the bench is with the front leg which, when stored, is pushed into the body of the bench and is very secure. Getting it out to set the bench up requires pulling the leg rather hard and with slippery hands it’s very difficult and I almost always bang my hand on other bench parts when doing this. Some sort of grip like a raised area on the leg, a knurled area or even a small handle on would make this much easier without affecting the operation.Despite the issues I’ve had I’m pretty happy with the WEN 600 lbs. Capacity Portable Clamping Saw Horse Work Bench with Non-Marring Jaws. It’s very stable in use and, while I haven’t tried to get anywhere near the weight capacity, I have no doubt it would handle the stated 600 pounds. I’m not particularly pleased with the quality control issue regarding the rear leg locking properly in storage position. I also don’t care for the lack of some sort of grip to make getting the front leg out of a storage position easier. Once set up it holds locks pieces in place easily, quickly and securely. I intend to use this portable workbench for many years.This is the manufacturer’s product page if interested:https://wenproducts.com/products/wen-wa600-600-pound-capacity-portable-clamping-saw-horse-work-bench-with-8-by-3-inch-jaws

I have several Wen products and I’m very happy with them all. They are inexpensive but not cheap. Not cheap meaning they are built well. This clamping saw horse is built pretty solid. I has a lot of clamping force just like it claims with very little pressure on the foot pedal. And it releases very easily as well. My only complaint is that is is pretty heavy and the carry handle is on the end and the unit is 31 inches tall so its hard to pick up and carry by the handle alone. setting it up and closing is not that easy either. I smashed my finger trying to close it up. I’m sure the more times I use it it will become easier and get used to it. Other that that i think its great. If I had a big shop I would just leave it set up all the time and wouldn’t have any problem at all. I still recommend it it’s a very handy tool to have.

This is a very heavy and well built horse. When I got home and saw this on the porch and noticed the box said team lift on it I kind of laughed – until I picked it up. Then I thought yep another person would be a big help right now. This thing is very heavy duty. That is a minus and a plus. Being easy to carry is good but if you want really strong you need some good steel and this has it. I do believe it could handle the weight stated if it was properly rigged and anchored. It is a good thing it comes with a really heavy duty handle (attaching that handle is the only assembly) for carrying because you really need that to move it around. I like the way it folds and stands on the end. However one shortcoming I noticed was with it sitting the way it is designed you have the metal end with 2 screws protruding that rest on the ground (or concrete in my case) and the vise end makes a foot for a 3point of contact standing position. I did not like that because it would scratch up my concrete floor and it would mar up the screws and paint on the end of the horse. But this was easy to remedy. I happened to already have a pack of small rubber feet and some matching bolts on hand so I just took the plate off the end (by removing those 2 screws), drilled 2 holes and attached two rubber feet to it. Now it rests on those rubber feet when in storage. If you don’t have those on hand you can pick some up for a few bucks. I think the design would be better if they would include such feet on it from the factory. I can see this being very handy when I have a workpiece of clamp and I don’t want to wheel out my heavy welding table with a vise mounted to it or I don’t want the piece marred by my metal vise It is very easy to clamp down on the piece and when you give the pedal a crank or so whatever is clamped in is going nowhere. The jury is still out on the 3 leg design. I can see that being a plus in some situations and a minus in others. On the whole I think it is a decent choice. Opening a folding back up takes a few times through to get the hang of it and loosen things up to get them relaxed enough that it is not stiff. It has some locking pins to hold the legs up when stored but those did not really catch enough to keep the feet from falling when it ss moved. This nearly got me whacked in the face by one of them so I had to tighten up the bolts until I got the tension just so where it was enough to help hold the legs in position but not so much as to make it difficult to open and close. You just remove that end plate to get to the bolts and adjust the tightness. So I had to tweak on it a little after getting it but none of that was what I’d call difficult and I had it just like I want in maybe 30 minutes.

This did just what I was looking for. I have seen similar products in some of the woodworking videos I watch and have been wanting one of these. It is easy to use, holds tight and can easily fit most projects. The sliding clamp are is reversible to give even more flexibility.The actual clamping mechanism is simple to use — place your work piece against the front pad, slide the back pad up to it and step on the peddle. Done.My only dislike is the weight of the unit — this thing is heavy.

WEN 600-Pound Capacity Clamping Saw HorseThis clamping saw horse from WEN has all of the benefits of both a remarkably steady saw horse and a post vise. Without the negatives of either one, it folds away for storage. The clamping saw horse comes with a rating of 600 lbs… I personally would have liked a higher rating it higher, primarily because of it’s all steel construction, but the jaws easily can be clamped up to that 600 lbs. rating. The features of this saw horse, like it’s reversable mounting of the top clamp bar make it easily reconfigured because of its intuitive design features. The only real surprise is its front and rear handles. The front handle is essentially the jaws themselves; the rear handle is an actual D-ring that makes moving it into position much easier than just grabbing the frame itself. At 46 lbs. the rear handle makes those small moves into the final position for your job easier. The 8-inch by 3-inch padded jaws make it easier to grab that work piece without marring the surfaces. Of course, in short order I did not need a non-marring set of jaws. I ended up needing were a pair of jaws with steel covers. That was to use the jaws as a multi position, welding clamp body. This unit worked perfectly to position the pipe and bracket for a clean weld. This is not a use listed for this clamping saw horse, probably because of the care you need to take to protect the soft non-marring jaws and the top rails that also need to be protected from weld splatter. Once you figure out your protective measures it makes the job a snap. I found that protecting and increasing the jaws size also makes for an excellent work clamp for use with draw knives or debarking tools on a small scale. This clamping saw horse can make many of your jobs, like holding a miter saw or table saw, as easy as mounting the saw to a base to fit the jaws. You can also use the clamping jaws to hold a fence post for you to shovel the concrete in and then by placing 2 stabilizing boards in place, you can move on to your next post. All while working alone, without trying to “mickey mouse” your support system. The more you try using this clamping saw horse, the more you will find you really can do the next job alone, and safely. When you are done with the dirtiest of jobs you can clean the clamping saw horse with a bucket of soapy water and a scrub brush. A spray of lubricant on the joints and pivot points when you finish and your metal clamping saw horse is ready to start on that next job you decide you can tackle alone and safely.

This has been a great purchase. it took a few attempts to really get the locking mechanism down, but after that one of the best purchases I have made. Once you have something locked in, it holds tight even if you are putting pressure while drilling or cutting. Would recommend this to anyone.

Overall good quality, perfect wood vise. Helps hold hard to control objects, grip strength once locked is great. No complaints, would recommend purchase.

A clamping saw horse is like an extra pair of hands when you need it. This saw horse comes completely assembled except for the lifting handle which attaches in seconds. The unit is sturdy and the clamping force is easy to apply using the foot pedal. There are many times I have a project that requires multiple operations and setting it up and using clamps is cumbersome and time consuming. With this saw horse I can clamp and begin the process in seconds. Looking around for where I left the c-claps is history!
