I am looking for some help. I have just begun to create what I hope is many
years of sawdust. I have been scouring the net for a plan for a mantle
shelf. I don't mind paying for plans, but I don't want the entire mantle,
just the shelf. I have seen a couple, but not many. Anyone have any
suggestions for a newbie?

Thank you,

Jeremy

Check out Woodsmith.com for their plans. I got a book from them that had
some.

Just look at some pics from furniture dealers, like http://www.mantels.net/.
You shouldn't need plans, just a good pic of the details of what you want.
The dimensions will work out to what you need.

Look at this page for some dimensions and patterns, as well as some
fireplace-to-mantel size suggestions:
