Here's a value test: a single set of professionally drawn shed plans from a drafting service typically costs $80–200. A single furniture plan set from an architect: $50–150. One set of deck plans: $100+. Ted's Woodworking offers 16,000 of these — sheds, furniture, decks, cabinets, birdhouses, toys, and more — for less than the price of a single weekend project's worth of lumber.
The real question isn't whether it's worth the price. It's whether the quality is there. And after reviewing a representative sample, the answer is yes — with some caveats.
Plans are organized into project categories including:
Every single plan includes: a complete materials list (lumber, hardware, quantities), a step-by-step cut list with exact dimensions, detailed diagrams and illustrations, and assembly instructions. This is what separates Ted's plans from generic woodworking Pinterest images.
For beginners, the biggest barrier to starting a woodworking project isn't skill — it's knowing what to buy and how to cut it. Most free plans give you a picture and vague instructions. Ted's plans tell you exactly: 3 boards of 2×4×8, cut to these 7 dimensions, at these angles. A beginner can take a plan to Home Depot, have them cut the lumber, and start building the same day.
"I built my first shed from one of these plans. Zero woodworking experience. Took me 3 weekends. My neighbors thought I hired a contractor. This collection is absolutely worth it."— Gary P., 62, retired, Ohio
"I'm a seasoned woodworker and I still found dozens of projects I'd never thought of. The DWG files are pure gold for customizing designs in CAD. Incredible library."— Mike T., 51, hobbyist builder
