Wood Plans - Easy Woodworking Plans

Workbench Plans

A workbench is the perfect starter project for anyone just getting into DIY. The project is simple enough that you can design your own bench - once you understand the basic joinery and construction.

 

Pergola Plans

Most pergola plans require some sophisticated building skills to pull the project off - but a pergola attached to your house is a much more doable project for the new DIY builder.

 

Playhouse Plans

Building a playhouse that is solid and safe for kids means you'll be putting together something that's not all that different from the real house you live in. It's just a little smaller.

 

Bookcase Plans

Seems like I never have enough bookcases in the house - but I've never been too keen on spending money for poor-quality bookshelves. Here are a few options.

Lumber Calculator

Perfect for calculating board feet, lumber dimensions, and plywood prices. Downloadable project calculator feaures three calculator tools: lumber calculator, board foot calculator, and plywood estimator.

 

Potting Bench Plans

Once you start using a potting bench - you'll wonder how you ever got along without it. No more crouching down on the ground to fill containers, replant flowers, or clean out old clay pots.

 

Loft Bed Plans

Building a simple, functional loft bed might be one of the most money-saving projects you can take on. Most plans call for inexpensive 2x lumber that you can paint or leave unfinished.

 

Platform Bed Plans

Platform beds are not only simple and easy to build - they're an exponentially less expensive alternative to expensive, manufactured bed frames at a furniture store.

Sawhorse Plans

Most people have forgotten just how useful a sawhorse can be. And building your own will give you one of the most strong, sturdy, and dependable pieces of shop furniture you can own.

 

Graph Paper

Downloadable graph paper may be one of the best ideas to come along since the advent of computers. Print only the pages you need for a given project - without buying a pad.

 

Project Design

CAD software programs are fine - for those who can figure out how to use them. I'd just a soon sketch my project ideas out by hand. That's why I created this set of downloadable templates.

 

Halloween Templates

Templates and diagrams make wood projects quick and easy. Here are my favorite downloads for use in the shop that will make your work easier and faster.

Birdhouse Plans

There are a lot of misconceptions about how to build a birdhouse. The project takes a little research to find out what kind of features each bird species requires. Not all birdhouses are the same.
