Bora Speedhorse Handle

thingiverse

I recently acquired two Bora Speedhorses and attempted to utilize their feature for adding lumber to the top and sides of the sawhorses to create material support. However, I immediately encountered two significant challenges with this approach. The primary issue arose from the fact that the Speedhorse is designed specifically for USA 4x2 lumber, which is not readily available in Australia. Instead, we utilize metric lumber, typically measuring either 35x70mm or 35x90mm, neither of which can be used on the Speedhorse to align the sides and tops properly. The second challenge I faced was that with the lumber positioned atop the speedhorse, it becomes extremely difficult to grip the sawhorse one-handed using its built-in handle grips. In response, I opted to leave a gap, which sparked an idea for creating a handle to facilitate easier carrying of these items. I utilized 35x90mm lumber for the tops, which is precisely what these handles are designed to accommodate. Additionally, I can create handles that fit 35x70mm lumber if there's sufficient interest. To address the first issue, I've developed a metric adapter available on Thingiverse, which can be used by anyone in a similar situation requiring this modification.
