Although I am very happy with my Rockwell Jaw Horse, I am less than happy with the plywood accessory. The first time I tried to use it, the spot welds holding the clamping surface onto the main part of the accessory broke. I debated whether to send the accessory back for replacement but decided rather to just drill two holes and bolt the part part back into place rather than go through the hassle of the return. Also, since the accessory was advertised as new, I reasoned that the exchanged part might have the same design flaw as the one I sent back and the fix was simple enough to do. It is not as pretty as it was but it works. If the product I received was indeed new, Rockwell needs to redesign the assembly of this part.

This accessory is simply a replacement jaw for the one that comes with the Jawhorse. I have found it to be quite useful and it isn't so large as to represent a storage headache. It has a significantly wider throat than the basic jaw and so can't be reversed. It also has a wider base, but not so much as to provide additional lateral support. It's very easy to remove and reinstall either this or the basic jaw on the Jawhorse, so that's not an issue.

For working with a 4x8 piece of plywood you need to do something to support the overhang (hardly surprising). 2 clamps are included to construct outriggers using either 2x2 or 2x4 stock to serve this purpose (think in terms of an 8 foot piece with a leg clamped on each end ... the cross piece is laid across the inside of the jaw to provide the support). It's a simple jig to create and is more effective than some of the silly things I've done using saw horses in the past.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Accessory, February 8, 2009

I am a very happy user of the JawHorse, and the plywood jaws live up to the same quality standard.

The Plywood jaw is just a longer jaw with the same heavy-duty construction as the normal JawHorse jaw. It's easy to install aned works well. Includes connectors to quickly add outriggers made from 2X4's (you supply the 2X4's).
