Excellent video content! Forgive me for the intrusion, I am interested in your opinion. Have you considered - Proutklarton Money plant Plan (search on google)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for learning how to make a massive income by launching your own internet business without the headache. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my best friend Jordan got astronomical success with it.

the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzread.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

I was really inspired by this, and I fixed a chair leg with duck tape.

OG Comments!!!

Thank you for this video, 2 years later and this video has still filled the gap of knowledge for people like myself trying to find resources and advice on how to do this

Dude, once again a timely, well put together, concise, informative video. Can't tell you how much others like myself appreciate the info you're putting out. I've been moving away from the pencil/paper plans that I've used forever and trying to teach myself sketchup for a couple of months. Now I think I'll look at fusion 360 to see the benefits. I'll also be ordering your miter saw staion/cabinets plans. Really diggin the channel, keep up the great work!

I love your transparency, it’s refreshing and it helps me on wether I’m going to do something or not, thank you. Keep making shop greatness!!!

Dude, you're awesome, willing to share everything you're doing, how you're doing it, and the financials behind it all. When it comes time to buy plans for a project, I will be starting with yours on Etsy, no question. I appreciate ya'. Keep up the good work.

Nobody is this transparent. Thank you!

Thanks for the video! This is just what I needed! This is the next step for my channel and I appreciate you showing us your process! Your plans are awesome and Fusion 360 is the bomb!!!

Just bought your plans for the "perfect garage workbench" and they are fantastic. After studying them for one evening I was able to really understand the whole build and make some decisions on customizations I want to make... and some customizations I had considered but discarded as too complicated. Can't wait to get started building. The plans actually got me excited, lol!

I really enjoy your style and the progression of your channel over the years. Even among the makers, it's quite unique! Thank You!

Killer video man. Having purchased a few of your plans, I can attest to them being top notch. Yours are my favorite because of the detail, color, and cut list/supplies. Keep it up 👍🏻

One of the most concise, well-explained videos I have EVER seen! Your editing style makes your videos that much more enjoyable. I love how you cut the crap and get down to it!

Awesome video man! Thanks for taking the time to lay this out for everyone. I've been really wanting to jump ship from Sketchup into Fusion; even more of reason!

Thanks for the intro to Fusion 360. I was learning Sketch Up as a newbie woodwork hobbyist, and it's a pain!; even with some help from videos from the Pros. And your plans includes everything for someone trying it out the first time; unlike some others that left me guessing. Thanks.

Thank you! Your transparency and clear languge is second to none my friend! Congratulations! I'm a 20 yo aspiring to be a woodworker and this is so inspiring it hurts hahah

As always, very appreciative of folks sharing their process and helpful info. this was really informative.

I know this video is a bit old, but just want to say you are extremely clear and in-depth of what you’re saying!!!!

Dude this is super helpful. Really appreciate the info Travis! I just made a table saw cart and want to make plans for it so this is timely!!

Great video boss. Great info on getting own "business " up and running. A lot of info stated on cut lost and build lost sparked a better way forward for me. All though I have done something similar the way you broke it all down is way easier and don't know why I did not think about it like that. So thanks. Keep up the awesome videos and builds.

Great video, great information, but one major omission: it wouldn't hurt to tell folks that Fusion 360 costs $60/month of $495/year, right from the get-go. This will make it easier and quicker for your audience to choose what is best for their individual needs and budget.

This is a great video! As a draftsperson, I tend to make shop drawings like I was sending them to the fabrication floor. Way to much detail and way too complicated. This was a great reminder to keep it simple, but have everything explained. Thanks again!

Thank you for inspiration, that's really awesome!

SO helpful!! It really inspires me with something I could do for some cash to save for upgraded tools. Thank you!!!

Thanks for the advice! I too do it on paper but always wanted to try a program like fusion.

I really like this video. I've made blog entries for years about how I build things. Mostly just pictures with me typing (or talking if it is a video) explain what I'm doing. Then I always get the comments about if I have plans, cut lists, parts list. I've just never been that organized. About to start working on a Dual Dog Kennel / Entertainment center. I've already done my pencil sketch. I guess maybe I need to look at Fusion360 and see if I can make some basic plans. Thanks, your video got me headed down the right path.

Wow this is a great video... Thank you so much I always see these amazing plans drawn up for projects on Pinterest and I have been wanting to make my graph paper plans better... This is super helpful

Thanks so much for this! Definitely filled a need with this video!

So cool video, so detailed about how to make your plans. Great info and tips! Thank, bro'!

Awesome work. Keep on pursuing shop greatness.

Great video as usual!! Keep it up brother. One of my favorite channels on YT!

Fabulous job as usual! Hey, after all anyone with a Saturn V model is top notch. What a beast that rocket was! Keep up the A+ work!!!

I’ve been wondering how I could go about doing something like this. Video explained it amazingly. Thanks for the inspiration! 👊🏻

I took some of your ideas and tried them out. I am getting where I can make plane in printed format to take out in the shop. I worked on a current project (overland/camp box) and got something printed out which I can use. However, I am using Sketchup. In Sketchup, you have to download the extension "Open Cut Lists". I think it does a good job. I broke everything down by sub assemblies and by individual components. Long story short...I used PowerPoint to create my plans. Thank you for your insight. Looking forward to similar type of videos.

Thanks for the tip on F360 training. I have been struggling to learn it. And thanks for the affirmation that it is a good tool for the job.

great discussion, thanks for the information.

Really like these videos. Very informative. Would love to hear more about how youve built your channel and monetised your hobby. From audio and video to etsy and growth.

Wow! Great incite to this part of the business! A lot of content creators do this but never share the benefits. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your guidance.

Thank you. Loved the video.

Great video, thank you!

Thanks and the link to a class on Fusion is priceless, I have access to a no cost use of Fusion related to my job, but without some direction it’s daunting at best.

I came across your videos over the Thanksgiving holidays. Great videos. Thanks for sharing and I have a shop cabinet plan I am working on because of these videos. I am NOT repeat NOT a wood worker. Looking forward to my build.

You sir, are amazing.

Dude...GREAT video! Thank you for that amazing content

Excellent video, thanks for all the useful info!

Outstanding video! Super helpful.

This is awesome. Thanks! I need to get going on my first plan!

Thanksfully for your videos

Thanks for the tips I was looking for something similar of what your saying on how to show a guide with explanations and greetings from Puerto Rico.

Very useful and informative! I'm going to make my first build plan today. Thanks!

Thanks mate. Awesome video

Thanks for the info 👍

I purchased your Jobsite Table Saw Workbench plans and found them very easy to use (I am building my second one now with some modifications for a miter saw and spindle sander versus the router lift and table saw). I somewhat disagree with your comment on getting rid of words altogether. While it works for Legos; I think there is one major distinction to be made. All of the Lego pieces are already in their final shape; you just need to match them up. In the case of woodworking, you need to transform the wood into its final shape and THEN assemble it. Some written direction is required to understand the key points you call-out throughout your plans (e.g., "make sure you use straight 2x4's or you will have difficulty later"). I really enjoy your videos, plans, and products. Keep up the great work. You have certainly helped me transform my workshop.

A really use video, keep up the excellent work!!!!

Love the Lego Saturn rocket in the background. :)

Great video. I use sketchup for my own drawings to use as 'plans' for my builds, but I've been considering offering full plans for projects on my channel. You've given me lots to think about, thanks!

Great video!

Thank you!

Awesome Video as Always!

I just bought my first set of your plans, for the Shmedium Workbench, and my first reaction was, "HOLY SH!*!!!!! 95 pages! What the?!". But I looked through them, and found them extremely detailed. Great job! Very impressive.

Great video and content as always!

Excellent video, this was just what I was looking for! One suggestion I’d offer since you said you’re looking to move away from PowerPoint is the Affinity suite of apps. They have Publisher (Indesign replacement), Photo (Photoshop replacement), and Designer (Illustrator replacement). I’ve been using those for about 6 months now and haven’t looked back. They are a one time purchase as opposed to a subscription which is awesome and I have yet to find a tool from Adobe that’s missing in Affinity. Didn’t mean to make this sound like a sales pitch, I just really enjoy these apps and I think you might as well!

This was an excellent video, I learned a lot. Thank you....

Thanks for your videos. I used your shop miter saw plans but learned that I have to adapt, improvise and overcome when putting others plans in my shop. My space was shorter and needed to shorten things. I would like to get into the Fusion 3D but HOLY COY, $495 A YEAR!!! Can you imagine how many clamps that would buy :-)

OMG, the universe is on my side today. I am in the process of starting a DIY / Woodworking KZread channel and was literally sitting at my desk trying to make plans for my latest projects (a desk and a shop cart) and was really starting to get discouraged. I took a break and flipped over to KZread and your video popped up...insane how this happens. I've been using sketchup for a dozen years to design homes that I flip and using it for woodworking projects was working ok until I got to the plans. I think I need to look into Fusion but I'm a little nervous about the learning curve since i want to get my channel and website live ASAP to share some of my content. Thank you for this video and the almost "The Secret" timing of this (i also watched the movie The Secret last night)...time to go buy a lotto ticket.

This is an awesome video bud. Thank you.

Your builds are great. I'd love to see you build something around tape storage. I have rolls of masking tape, duct tape, electrical tape etc laying all over the place and I can never figure out what to do with them.

I've been using FreeCad and OpenSCAD for my work to do 3D Modelling for my printer. I took Mechanical CAD back in College (20+ years ago now) and I still consider myself extremely rusty (pun intended -- mechanical..rust... oh never mind) but I've been successful with making some models. My next task is to make a storage unit for my printer I can stuff in a corner. I see that there is a free version of Fusion360, so I'm going to give that a whirl. I saw how easily you made the rabbit ears, so thought I'd give it a shot.

Great video

Thank you soo much.

Very nicely presented. Fusion 360 is a great option

Sketchup was owned by google before and I use for making cabinet design too but that's like almost 10 years ago. Google sold it. I'm also using Fusion 360 and OnShape. They are almost identical in workflow and tooling. I like OnShape because it's web-based and I don't need to install anything and I can open multiple windows. Once you learned the proper 3D modeling I think you don't want to go back to SketchUp. My profession is software developer, for me, Fusion360 is more like object-oriented programming. You can easily modify things without much effort.

Ha, can’t believe I haven’t seen this one sooner. Also recommended Kevin K in a vid (his free playlist). Fusion 360 is soo good and once learned is like riding a bike. Please don’t quit KZread bro. Cheers!

Great content. I have no plans to sell plans but even for my own use I'd like to have to tools to do a good job & learn something new in case, in the future, I want to move in that direction.

I would love to learn Fusion. I've used it but I have barely scratched the surface. It would be really cool to offer plans one day. But there is also a lot of benefit to doing this. One thing I've found recently is that I have found free plans that are ok. But that I tweak to meet my needs. I want to make my own plans that I can print off for my own personal use. Maybe they use pocket holes and I"m planning to use dominos. Maybe they suggest assembling one way and during my build I find that a different assembly process works better for me. Or... i just want to change a few dimensions. I hand write and draw pictures so that I can recreate my tweaked version. Sure would be a lot easier to make plans. Or... same thing for the things that I create on my own. Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks again for a great video. I love how you turn the Lego instruction into a Lamborghini brochure 😂

It has over 30 pages of photography of actual Lambos and history, which gives it that brochure look. See it here: lego.brickinstructions.com/en/lego_instructions/set/42115/rb

what is Id vs powerpoint? I can,t find that anywhere ...thanks

Very good coverage - I appreciate you sharing all of this.

Autodesk recently changed the license for what is now the personal/hobbyist free version. If you plan to use it to make money, you need to get the paid version @ $500/year. The developer is a questionable criteria for selecting a CAD tool. Instead, there are technical reasons for Fusion 360 (or FreeCAD). One is parametric modeling. Another is articulating parts. Fusion has them. Sketchup doesn't.

This was great and just in time for me to plan my huge kitchen remodel. I’m very familiar with Autocad but not fusion. Is there a reason you don’t create the plans in a cad based software? Or just preference?

DUDE you have salved my problem today.

Absolutely love your videos and amongst other channel makers it's inspired me to start taking my hobby a little bit more seriously. Is the Fusion 360 Free version sufficient enough for woodwork modelling? I'm used to Sketchup but as you say it's limited so happy to start from scratch

All I could think about is how my OCD was driving me nuts with the partially opened drawer behind you!

Awesome video and explanation. You can really tell your professional career skills shining through in this KZread channel. Excellent work! Also, you may want to look into Snagit from TechSmith. It is a phenomenal screenshot tool which could help with the lack of functionality in PowerPoint. It will also complement the workflow when you move away from PP into a different authoring tool. My apologies if you already have used it, just figured it may help. Thanks again!

subbed bro. good video.

It is in fact my first time to the channel / video I've seen and I must share that I got WAY too excited over the definition of Shop Greatness.

Great tutorial. When you spoke about how much money do you make on etsy, it would be easy to think that this is done exclusively from your digital plans. You do have a pretty healthy collection of tools and other items. I don't think that it's necessarily wrong but I am a supporter about being transparent and upfront when money is involved. You can spend a lot of time creating plans and nothing is certain but having realistic expectations can actually spur you on rather than suck the enthusiasm right out of you.

Love the video as with all your content. As much as I’d love to start working with something like Fusion or Sketchup, a subscription based system just isn’t in reach for my level of hobby woodworking. Is there anything you might recommend that’s a ‘buy once, cry once’ type of option that might be more accessible to a more amateur/hobby-level user trying to explore with 3D modeling?

Great info👍Do you have a recommended page size to put the plans onto? Sorry if already answered, I’m asking days after watching the video and didn’t rewatch.
