The first time I heard about the Woodworking4Home web site is about 2 weeks ago from a fellow woodworking hobbyist friend of mine.
He asked me to check out the web site because they have a huge collection of woodworking project plans. Initially, I was a bit skeptical so I headed to www.woodworking4home.com to check it out.
My First Impression
My 1st impression on the web site was amazement. My friend wasn’t kidding when he said they have a big collection of woodworking blueprints. They have more than 14,000 project plans!
That is crazy…it could have taken them years to acquire all those plans!
To be honest, I was still a bit skeptical. I have heard and read a lot of scams on the internet. I was concerned the Woodworking4home is another scam.
So I proceed cautiously because I didn’t want anyone to pull a fast one on me.
I decided to take a closer look at the web site. It took me about 10 minutes to read the web site, and yes, I read it word for word.
The guy who created the web site is a professional woodworker from Montana, USA name John Metz. He looks like a decent guy. So far so good.
Could Woodworking 4 Home be a fraud?
I really wanted to have access to all the plans. In my past woodworking projects, all of the plans have been obtained from carpentry reference books and magazines.
I have a woodworking magazine monthly subscription where I get articles and write ups on carpentry projects.
With 14,000 plans, I can cancel the magazine subscription and save some money on wood project design plans.
I then reviewed the Woodworking4Home offer and found the asking price was only $49.
I have to admit, $49 for 14,000 plans is a damn good deal. Furthermore, the creator, John Metz promised a 60 days money back guarantee on all the plans.
I figure, heck, the most I have to lose is $49. The risk is pretty minimal.
I once purchased a router for $497 and it broke after 3 weeks and I couldn’t get the warranty. $49 seems like a very small investment compared to that.
In the end, I did pull out my credit card and ordered the plans. The whole process was pretty straight forward, no surprises.
When the credit card transaction was completed, I receive an email immediately for the download link. Downloading all the woodworking plans will take some time though.
So is Woodworking4home a scam?
I’ve tried to pick it apart but everything seems to be in order to me. The plans were pretty good, very much like the wood project articles in the magazine.
In fact, some of the plans were old magazine plans that have been converted into digital format.
If you are a woodworking enthusiast and want to have access to a large collection of blueprints, take the Woodworking4home offer for a test run. I’m glad I did.
