Design Your Own Wood Projects!
I used to work out my project ideas on post-it notes and napkins. It was an awkward system, prone to mistakes and forgotten ideas that sometimes never made it down on paper to begin with. Then one day I decided to come up with a more organized method.
In this section from my How to Build Anything series, I'm including my original EZ Project Planner—a set of printable templates and graph paper that streamlines the process of sketching project ideas and estimating lumber and materials.
The planner also includes a handy shopping checklist for itemizing all the materials you need for a particular project (this prevents needless trips back to the store for items you forgot).
