Step-by-step instructions
Sequenced build instructions written to be followed in order, from stock selection through to the finish.

You don't lose a weekend to sawdust. You lose it to a free blueprint that turns out to be missing three measurements, a photo where a dimension should be, and a "just cut to size" where a cut list should be.
The usual result is a pile of expensive timber, a project on hold, and a nagging feeling that you paid for the learning curve in hardwood. The frustrating part isn't your skill — it's that the instructions were never finished in the first place.
A plan you can actually trust needs four things on the same page: a drawing with real dimensions, a cutting list, a materials list, and instructions in an order that doesn't assume you already know the trick.
That is the standard this library is sold against.
What you can expect from each project in the library.
Sequenced build instructions written to be followed in order, from stock selection through to the finish.
Detailed drawings and enlarged schematics, so joint details and component sizes are visible rather than guessed.
A cut list per plan, so you can break stock down in the right order with far less waste.
Exactly what to buy before you start, instead of a mid-build trip to the timber yard.

A handful of the project types the library is sold to cover.
The library is sold as a searchable collection rather than a stack of PDFs — you look up the thing you want to build and pull the matching plan, cut list and materials list together.
New plans are added monthly under the lifetime-access terms, and buyers can request a plan for a project that isn't already covered.

The product is presented under the name Ted McGrath and credited as a master woodworker, educator, trainer, author and member of the Architectural Woodwork Institute (AWI).
The Ted’s Woodworking story includes a small production team, a workshop where projects are built before their plans are released, and material dating back to 1980s cabinetmaking classes.
Biographical and workshop details are provided for informational purposes and may change over time.
Ted’s Woodworking includes lifetime access to a library of over 16,000 woodworking plans, each with step-by-step instructions, drawings, a cutting list and a materials list, plus monthly new plans and four bonuses — a DWG/CAD plan viewer, 150 videos, a woodworking business guide, and a 200+ page reference guide.
The vendor states it is a single one-time payment of $67 with no monthly fees and no recurring charges. Confirm this on the checkout page, and check whether any optional add-ons are offered after purchase — the vendor does offer physical DVD / USB copies for an extra shipping fee.
It is a digital product, delivered online. Optional physical copies on DVD or USB are offered as a paid extra as an optional physical format for an additional fee.
Ted’s Woodworking is designed for beginners and hobbyists as well as experienced builders. Whether a specific plan is beginner-appropriate depends on the project — start with the small crafts and simple furniture categories.
The plans are supplied as PDF documents, and a DWG/CAD plan viewer is included as a bonus for the CAD-format files. A standard PDF reader covers the majority of the library.
The vendor advertises a 60-day money-back guarantee. Refund requests are handled through ClickBank, the retailer processing the order. Keep your order receipt, and note that any separately purchased physical items may be handled under different terms.
Check the vendor's current sales page for any available previews or sample plans before you buy. If you still have questions about the file formats or what is included, contact the vendor for clarification rather than assuming every project uses the same level of detail or the same format.
Plainly: through affiliate commission. If you buy through a link on this page, the retailer pays us a percentage. It does not change your price, and it does not change what we've written here — including the limitations listed above.
If a searchable library of plans, cut lists and materials lists would save you more time than it costs, it's a straightforward trade. If not, keep hunting — plenty of good plans are free.
