Google. Your local library.

What do you mean by schematic plan?

I get dimensions with my tape measure, buy materials at the lumber
place, and etc I get wherever I can find it.

Well, there are woodworking books, magazines, websites, etc.

Perhaps if you would be more specific as to what you need, many of
us will try to help.

They're not free but I've used The New Yankee Workshop. Click on
http://www.newyankee.com/index.shtml and then click on project plans..

Woodworking Plans

I am not the one to ask, but I recommend staring with learning all th
ebasics, then you will know not only plans are the way they are, but how to
plan something yourself. I think you will be missing out any other way. I
searched for a series of books to cover a lot of ground and I found it. Its
about 42 or so books, each about 120 pages , 5000 total, but large text,
lots of pics, diagrams, tips, plans, etc. It is complete with useful info
and there is a topic for everything. You can whip through a book in no
time, but no time is wasted. You will understand why the grain is that way,
the types of joints, whether glue sticks to a finely sanded wood surface as
well as any other...Not only did I find the series, but the whole thing is
at my library, or 125 of them, where I can order, pick up, drop off, renew
to/from anywhere, online.

Some are in the series, some are not. They are blue, hard or soft cover.
'The Workshop Companion', ' Techniques For Better Woodworking' is on the
cover of the books in the series. Many titles in the series begin with
'Using' or 'Making', such as 'Making Tables and Chairs'.

A book in the series looks like these ones a the top:

Before I went to the library I knew about it and bought one on a table at
Lee Valley.

I know the importance of good plans, and insist on immaculate dimensions. I
also know AutoCAD inside and out, and it makes this faster and better than
you can imagine. And I can do all my cut lists, interpolate dims, etc.
faster than a pencil and calculator. A pencil is your friend.

why you replied to me and not to "herself." Also, there's plenty of
good books out thtere in addition to Nick Engler.....

my posts never go where I want.
I have no idea if the OP has momumental skills, just thought that if tending
to the printed side of things. Anywasys choosing a series relieves me from
picking and choosing topics, you get a little bit of everything in 5000
pages. As it turns out, they are all good pages, not for show
