Nice, looks very sturdy. Will have to make one of those my self.
One question, what is the device in the last pic with all the clamp
ends on it and the adjustments used for? Looks like some sort of press.

I had a client who wanted a double-sided 12' sign carved. My suppliers
couldn't provide (advertized) 16' panels - so I ended up building that
clamp to glue up 8' and 4'6" sections to get the 12' panels.
The clamp was built with 2x4 and 2x6 boards and a half dozen of Lee
Valley's veneer press clamps. It worked well enough that the splice is
difficult to find - and doesn't show at all on the painted face. :-)
There should be a better picture in the ABPW archives.

Han...
If you like it as you see it, the only info you need is:
[1] The bipod legs and top pieces are 30" long
[2] The front leg should be just long enough to reach the ground.
[3] The spreader should be cut to fit (~11" on the short side).
[4] All not-square angles are 10 degrees off-square.
If you'd like a detailed plan with step-by-step directions and
construction photos, I can put it together (but probably not for a
week or two). If you'd really be more comfortable with a plan to work
from, let me know.
With three legs, you can make it stand crooked - but you can't make it
wobble. :-)

I'd like to see that. somehow, your picture hasn't shown up on abpw on
my newsserver, nor on http://www.delorie.com/wood/abpw/ so far, though
I do see a reply to your pic on my server.

Not very well except in pairs (turn one upside down and put it on the
other). In my shop it's never been an issue. When I wasn't using the
old pair, one somehow became a base for a 10" disk sander and the
other a base for a 1x42 belt sander. It was easier to build more
horses than design and build the sanding bench I need...
I did a stint on the west coast a few years ago and took a copy paper
box of tools with me - built and used one of these as a workbench out
on the patio to build most of my furnishings from SPF. The short pipe
clamp in the top photo was my (not terribly elegant) vise for that
work. The best part was giving it all away when I left and not having
to worry about moving it. (The horse went off to SF for use in
refurbing a friend's sailboat.)
These are the first I've built with pocket joinery - and it's a _lot_
easier (and neater) this way.
