It's a term that was originally used about 1,000 years ago in England. For a fee, innkeepers would provide travelers (usually people on religious pilgrimages) with a room for the night and food (board). The food was served from a makeshift, temporary table--usually a wooden board set up on two sawhorse-like structures.
well there is really only 1 English word easeltho it has 2 distinct meanings the common device long used by painters on the one hand & on the other the less familiar device more recently adapted from it by photographers but this single word easel came in the late 16th century from the single dutch word for both an easel & an ass which was & still is ezel & both English easel & dutch ezel ultimately derive from the latin word for ass also which is or was asinus & its diminutive variations which are or were asinulus & asellus the image of a 4 legged framework as a beast of burden is also found in a gymnasts horse & a woodworkers donkey or sawhorse etc tho the notion of a painters ass is perhaps more from the language of laughter

Just one horse, the Sawhorse, is found in the beautiful, enchanted, magical lands of Oz.While in her enchanted form as Tip, Princess Ozma meets the Sawhorse in the Gillikin country. The creature is horse-like in capabilities but sawhorse-like in appearance. He becomes Ozma's royal steed once the enchantment is broken, and the princess assumes her real form and identity as the ruler of Oz. Subsequently, the sawhorse is part of Dorothy Gale's fact-finding mission throughout all the lands of Oz. Ozma also entrusts the sawhorse to lead the rescue party across the Deadly Desert and into and under the land of Ev to free Ev's royal family from the clutches of the Nome King.
The sawhorse has long been used by carpenters.

Sawbuck: A sawbuck is typically another name for a sawhorse; in particular one which, at each end, has a crossed pair of legs. It is also slang for a ten-dollar bill as older versions of this particular bill incorporated "X", which is the Roman numeral for the number ten. The slang term came into use as the numeral resembles the end of a sawhorse.
