I was looking at Facebook and saw a CD with 16,000 wood plans and several bonuses for 47.00 bucks. It's called Ted woodworking plans. Sounds pretty good but I thought I'd run it by you guys and gals and see if you know anyone or if you have it yourself and is it for real.

Thanks Bill :)
 
This thread has some information on those plans.

There is an article in the May 2010 issue of Wood magazine by Tom Lovino "The Shop Monkey" called 'Monkey Business" that addresses this very issue.

Basically, the gist of it is that these 'collections' of plans are typically poorly done, that they may not actually own the copyrights to the plans, and that they typically lack the type of instruction that someone new to the craft might need in order to be successful.

He suggests either going to the library and checking out the books or to subscribe to a few decent magazines.
