The short answer
Ted's Woodworking is a large downloadable library of woodworking plans, sold through ClickBank. Each plan comes with step-by-step instructions, a cut list, a materials list and drawings, according to the vendor.
It makes sense if you want a big catalog of beginner projects in one searchable place and plan to build more than a handful of them. If you only need one specific plan, a single paid plan or a free one may serve you better.
This page summarizes what the vendor's sales page says as of November 2026. I don't claim to have built every plan. Offer details can change, so the official order page is the final word.
What you get
- Access to 16,000+ plans in a members area you can search by keyword and filter by category and difficulty.
- New plans added every month, with no recurring fee on the one-time option.
- One custom plan request, drafted by the vendor's team.
- Bonuses: a DWG/CAD plan viewer, 150+ woodworking videos, a guide to starting a woodworking business, and a 200-page set of woodworking guides.
- An option to receive everything on physical media, for an extra shipping fee.
How the library is split, by the vendor's own category counts:
What it costs
$67, one time
That's the lifetime-access price on the sales page in November 2026. The vendor says a $39/month membership is replacing it, so check the price on the order page before you pay.
Refunds: the vendor offers a 60-day money-back guarantee, and the order is processed by ClickBank.
The sales page says the one-time price may end soon. Treat that as the vendor's marketing, not a reason to rush. The refund window is what actually protects you.
Is it a good fit for you?
Probably yes, if you
- are new to woodworking and want projects with full cut lists
- plan to build several projects over the next year
- work in a small space with basic tools
- like having outdoor, furniture and shop projects in one place
Probably skip it, if you
- only want one specific project
- learn mainly from video and rarely follow printed plans
- already own a large plan collection you haven't used
- want a live course with feedback on your work
Before your first build: a beginner checklist
Whether or not you buy any plans, these steps save lumber and weekends.
Pick the project before you browse. Start small: a step stool, a planter box or a wall shelf. A finished small piece teaches more than a half-built big one.
Match the plan to the tools you own. The vendor says most of its plans need a table saw, a drill, clamps and a sander. If you're missing one, choose a plan that works around it rather than buying tools first.
Check real lumber sizes. A 2x4 actually measures about 1.5 by 3.5 inches. Make sure the plan's cut list uses actual dimensions.
Buy a little extra wood. Adding 10 to 15 percent to the materials list covers a miscut without a second trip to the store.
Dry-fit before you glue. Assemble everything without glue or screws first, so you catch a bad cut while it's still easy to fix.
