This issue's Free Plans might have a kitchen concentration – whether you're looking at the 19th Century Kitchen Clock, reaching high shelves from the Hoosier Step Stool, or serving a meal (perhaps in front of the TV) on the Butler's Tray Table.

But Woodworker's Journal also has downloadable plans for every room in your house – including the shop. Check out some samples on this page, and check out the Downloadable Plans section of our WWJ Store.

Heirloom Collector's CabinetHeirloom Collector's Cabinet
Set aside a weekend and a few feet of clear maple lumber for building this old-fashioned collector's cabinet.

Mobile Clamping CartMobile Clamping Cart
Necessity is the mother of invention. In some shops, that's not a clever proverb, it's a design philosophy. Assembly supplies start to pile up so you design a storage fixture for them. This one has caught the eye of more than one visitor, so we thought we'd present it to you. It's a great solution to organizing clutter in a small shop.

Traditional New England SettleTraditional New England Settle
Equally at home next to the fireplace or in the entryway, this colonial bench will warm your home with its old-world charm. One way to enhance the project's aged appearance is to build it from reclaimed heart pine, just like our forefathers used.

Band Saw Box CrittersBand Saw Box Critters
Band saws are wonderfully quiet to operate and don't pose the same kickback threat as table saws. They're ideal for making straight or curved cuts, and the saw kerf creates much less airborne dust. But if your bandsaw isn't tuned properly, you'll be the one singing the blues. Here's how to get your saw adjusted and back on track.
Butler's Tray Table
Butlers Table
“Jeeves, I should like you to serve my breakfast in bed tomorrow, upon the tray.” What, you don’t say that at your house? If you’d like to pretend you could, you might start with building the Butler’s Tray Table with its folding base. You might even find a use for it that doesn’t require a butler.

19th Century Kitchen Clock
Kitchen ClockWhy, yes it is that time again – time to spring the clocks forward for spring. If you’re looking forward to spring, but not to all that fiddling with dials, you might want to relax in your shop with this 19th Century Kitchen Clock – a design from the time when you might have heard someone say “daylight’s wasting,” but they didn’t try to save it.

Hoosier Step Stool
Step StoolThis sturdy Hoosier Step Stool uses mortise and tenon joinery to create a blast from the kitchens of the past – where it could have served as either a stool to sit upon or a “leg up” to the higher shelves in its step stool function: just flip it over for one use or the other.
