Paper Mache Letters is one of the hottest things in crafting right now. As well they should be. They are lightweight, economical and so much fun to decorate.

Decorate the kid’s room, or spell out sayings on your walls. Spell out your child’s name or the sports he or she plays and decorate them accordingly.  There are just too many things you can do to mention, so we just thought we would show you instead.

Early Construction Machines Plan

Too NEW for our catalog!
Be the first to build these GREAT machines!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The road grader's front wheels turn and the blade can swing left or right

The steam roller is steered by the steering wheel inside the cab

 

The dump truck’s bed raises and the tail gate opens to release a load

 

The steam shovel’s arm raises up and down and the bucket pitches to release a load. The system pivots on a wheeled base

 

The Crane’s boom raises and lowers. A line allows the hook to raise a load up and down. The turret moves left and right. A cargo container is included in the plan.

 

 

Early in the 1900s, horse drawn machines were being updated to steam and reciprocating power to build roadways and prepare building sites for an industrial world. Our wood versions represent five of the most common machines from those bygone years. All are in one plan package. Display at work, on a shelf at home, or as gifts for construction friends or for youngsters who sit on curbs watching machines at work. Each one has moving parts for working the ground. Fun, educational, and fairly easy to build. For reference the dump truck is 12" long x 5" high. All five plans for only $21.95

Lumber prices are soaring, and deforestation is a rising concern. Yet millions of pounds of perfectly usable wood are dumped in landfills every year. Wood Pallet Projects shows how anyone can up cycle salvaged pallet wood to create truly one-of-a-kind projects. Maverick craftsman Chris Gleason combines sound woodworking techniques with a hip designer’s sensibility to unleash the limitless possibilities of the common skid. Inside you’ll find 15 of his inspired projects for rescuing and repurposing pallets. Some of his pieces celebrate the rough, edgy character of the material, while others are crafted as fine furniture. He shows how to construct both indoor and outdoor furniture in a variety of styles, along with other useful items such as a birdhouse, a toolbox, and even a ukulele. There’s plenty of nitty gritty here on working with pallets, including where to find them, how to process them into usable lumber, fasteners, sanding, and the best finishes (if any) to use. The author provides important advice on how to make sure that your pallets are safe, and not sprayed with harmful chemicals. A colorful gallery of finished work provides further inspiration for green crafting.

The Bear Family Lodge Plan

A family of bears live in this charming cabin at the base of the Teton Mountains. The log cabin, masonry, log furniture, a massive rock fireplace and a bear family are outlined in a comprehensive woodworking plan package.

After hibernating through a long, cold winter…

The family is back fishing for salmon and gathering honey for a meal

The bear family shown in assorted hardwoods

The family enjoys an evening of reading by the fire on log furniture fashioned from limbs from a real Birch tree. Mom reads to baby bear about Goldilocks and The Three Bears. The twins listen nearby.

Kindling is prepared for next winter near the Wyoming Buck and Rail fence

And the kids check out their family tree

A moose stands guard in the nearby woods while the family relaxes inside.

The plan covers everything including how to build the custom notched logs, a real rock fireplace and front porch pillars, dormers, a gable, a log truss, shingles, door and window construction, a staircase, two lofts, a simulated plank floor, log furniture and furnishings, a wood stove, lodge pole pine trees, fence, benches, a porch swing and the attention grabbing layered deer head over the mantel, and of course, the family of bears with moveable head, arms and legs. It’s the most compelling project ever on display at our shop in four decades of designs. Twenty one- 11" x 17" pages outline construction with two pages in full color. The completed project is 43" long, 28" deep and 24" high. Papa bear is 5 ½" high.

Plan sells for just $24.95
