How Ted's Woodworking works, start to finish
Reviewed 30 August 2026 · how we research
It is a digital product: you pay once, log in to a website, and view or download plans. There is no app to install and nothing ships unless you choose the paid physical media. Here is exactly what happens at each step.
1. Checkout through ClickBank
The "buy" buttons send you to a ClickBank checkout page. ClickBank is the payment processor and merchant of record, which is why the 60-day money-back guarantee is enforceable regardless of the sales-page wording. You pay the one-time fee (currently $67), and you may be shown optional add-ons - DVD, USB, extra plan packs. You can decline all of them and still get the full core package.
Save the confirmation email. It contains your ClickBank order number, which is what you need for any refund or support request.
2. Set up your members-area login
The confirmation email links to the members area, where you create a username and password. This login is your permanent access point - the vendor advertises it as lifetime, with no renewal fee. Access is tied to the login, not to a device, so you can sign in from a workshop tablet, a phone, or a desktop.
3. Find a plan
Inside, plans are grouped by category (furniture, sheds, outdoor, toys, shop fixtures, and so on) and roughly by difficulty. Practical approach: decide what you want to build, search that category, and open the two or three best-looking matches rather than trying to survey the whole library. Read the full plan - materials list, cutting list, drawings, steps - before you buy any lumber.
4. Download, print, or edit
Each plan can be viewed in the browser or downloaded as a file. Most people print the plan for the shop. If a plan is close to what you want but the wrong size, open its drawing file in the included DWG/CAD viewer, adjust the dimensions, and re-derive the cutting list. Double-check measurements after any edit.
5. Use the video classes
The package includes 150 video classes covering techniques and full project builds. Where a plan has a matching video, watch it - the video usually fills in the parts the written steps gloss over, like joinery order or clamping.
6. Monthly additions and the custom plan request
New plans are added to the members area each month at no extra cost - you just log back in and download them. The offer also includes one free custom plan request: you describe a project and the vendor's team drafts a plan for it. Treat that as a nice-to-have, not the main reason to buy.
If something goes wrong
Support is a ticket system inside the members area - no phone or live chat, and replies can be slow. For access problems or refunds, the faster route is often ClickBank's own customer support, using your order number. Refund requests within 60 days are honoured through ClickBank even if the members-area ticket stalls.
FAQ
Do I need to install anything?
No. It is a website you log in to. The DWG/CAD viewer is an optional download if you want to edit drawing files.
Can I use it offline?
Download the plans you need while online and you can view or print them offline afterwards. Browsing the library itself needs a connection.
Can I access it on my phone?
Yes. Login works in any browser, so a phone or workshop tablet is fine.
Is access really lifetime?
The vendor advertises lifetime access with no recurring fee for the core purchase. As with any single-vendor product, that lasts as long as the vendor keeps the members area running.
How do I get access after paying?
ClickBank emails a receipt with a link to create your members-area login. Access is immediate.
Where do I download the plans?
Inside the members area, each plan can be viewed in the browser or downloaded as a file.
How does the custom plan request work?
The offer includes one free request: you describe a project and the vendor's team drafts a plan for it.
How are new monthly plans delivered?
They appear in the members area. You log back in and download them, at no extra cost.
What support is available?
A ticket system inside the members area. There is no phone or live chat, and replies can be slow. ClickBank handles refunds.
Can I share my login or the plans?
Access is for your own use. Redistributing the plans is not permitted under the terms.
