The Latest Woodworking 4 Home Review – Top Of The DIY Plans Kits ?
I have been able to review Woodworking4Home, a collation of 14,000 DIY plans that can be downloaded and printed. Initially I could not understand how anybody could use that many plans. As an experienced and keen carpenter I have probably used no more than about 300 plans in total.
But a closer examination of the Woodworking 4 Home kit reveals a sensible grouping of all these projects into various categories such as sheds or dog houses. Within each category there are literally hundreds of different plans to choose from, each one being distinctly individual in design and character. Such a collection seems quite astonishing, but I understand that it has taken professional carpenter John Metz more than 5 years to put it together. The quality of his work is very clear in these sets of plans.
What do you actually get with the Woodworking4Home kit?
I reckon that there are about 100 separate categories, and within each there are an average of 135 individual projects and their plans. These plans are produced to proper blueprint standards, with all measurements shown clearly and with any obscure or complex assemblies illustrated by simple diagrams or photos.
The real worth of these plans is in the quantity of data, instructions and lists that accompany them.
Firstly, each assembly is broken down into easy, step-by-step segments. There are photos and sketches throughout the build process. There are clear and well-written instructions that are perfect for beginners and experts alike.
Of particular importance is the full list of materials and tools needed to complete each assembly. Having an expert do this for you, rather than trying to figure it out for yourself, is much better and could avoid a vital part being overlooked. The plans themselves are in PDF format, so can be downloaded easily for printing or storing on your computer .
Simplicity of design seems to be the key feature of this product, which I like a great deal. How many do-it-yourself projects, I wonder, are not finished because of unfathomable plans? From my own engineering experience I know how difficult to interpret some plans can be, even for some very simple parts. I am glad to report that the Woodworking4Homes plans are clear and easy to follow. There are also a series of video tutorials, covering a multitude of woodworking subjects in an interesting and instructive manner.
Are there any bad features?
I suppose the sheer size of the kit could be a bit daunting, but there is a simple search tool included to make finding any project easy. This does not seem to be a problem to me.
Also some people might consider the purchase price a little high but, compared with several other popular plans kits available online, I think that the cost is entirely justified on grounds of quality and design simplicity, not to mention the vast range of projects included. Look at the cost of just one set of good quality plans online and you might be surprised at how many dollars it will set you back.
So, in conclusion, does this Woodworking4Home review result in a recommendation from me? Yes, without hesitation. This is a good quality product that will appeal to both novices and experts alike. It also comes with a good money-back guarantee, which makes it a risk-free investment.
All things considered, this is definitely a quality plans kit that offers excellent value.
