Lots of people want to build their own bow, arrows and archery supplies.We have a free plan,which you can get from our<a href="http://www.vintageplans.org/"> website </a>,for building a flat bow and a traditional English long bow. The flat bow is particularly easy to build and is a very accurate shooter. <span style="line-height: 1.4;"> The long bow was used very successfully by English archers in winning many battles hundreds of years ago prior to the invention of guns and gun powder.</span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.4;">We also have free plans for crossbows which are amazingly accurate weapons and the Chinese antique repeating crossbow is a particularly interesting item. Chinese soldiers carried this bow for hundreds of years, and used it right into the 20th century unbelievably. This amazing bow has a magazine which holds many bolts(arrows) and these could be fired in rapid succession by pulling on a lever which cocked and fired them very quickly one after another. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.4;">A group of archers could send a positive cloud of arrows (which often had poisoned tips) at enemy soldiers which was to say the least discouraging for them when they tried to advance. Just a little prick from a poison arrow could be very quickly fatal.</span></span><br />

<br />
I have been interested in old plans for many years. It seemed that I was always on the prowl for plans from which I could build all kinds of things I wanted but couldn,t really afford to buy. I found out quite early on that many very suitable plans were to be found in old editions of magazines such as Science And Mechanics and a number of other similar magazines. Over a period of years I put together a collection of many hundreds of plans for all kinds of things.<br />
<br />
Later I discovered that the majority of these plans which were first published prior to 1964 were no longer copyright and were in fact in the "public domain", as a result of their copyright never being renewed before the expiry date. Everything published in the USA before the year 1923 is also automatically in the public domain with no exceptions. Since they are no longer in copyright, all of these items may be used by anyone at all for any purpose they desire. This includes printed material, and also audio (old radio shows) and videos (old movies). All of these non copyright items may be copied and republished or resold. The material cannot be copyrighted by any person in their original state, but a new version of the item may be copyrighted if there have been significant changes made to the material.<br />
<br />
Then in 1964 copyright laws were changed for the USA, and material published after that year remains in copyright for a very much longer period of time. There are actually certain exceptions to this with some publications up to the year 1978 which are in the public domain.<br />
<br />
To avoid any possibility of copyright problems I personally will only republish material which was copyrighted before 1964, and which is now in the public domain, which can be proven by checking the publication and its author at the US copyright office, a job which can be completed online very simply.<br />
<br />
My website<span style="color: red;"> <a href="http://www.vintageplans.org/"><span style="color: red;">Vintage Plans</span></a> </span>has available to everyone free copies of a selection of these old plans. This is an ongoing work and will undoubtedly take considerable time to finish. The simple fact is that it will very likely never be finished as new material continues to come to light continually from a number of sources.<br />
<br />
I also intend to republish freely copies of plans, articles etc which date far back into the 1800s and even further than that. Many interesting and useful plans and articles etc are available from this time.<br />
<br />
Check back with this blog and our website often and you will get much interesting material http://www.vintageplans.org.

We have some interesting new free plans which have just been posted on www.vintageplans.org. One is for a really unique folding kayak which you can carry under your arm and walk in to a fishing spot or lake with it very easily. It is light in weight and truly portable. You can extend the plans to make a bigger kayak if you wish.<br />
<br />
Then we have also posted a plan for a folding row boat which is also quite unique. Actually folding is a bit of a misnomer since the boat actually comes apart into three pieces. This makes it easy to stow in your car trunk for a trip to the lake.<br />
<br />
When you get there you just bolt the three pieces together and there is your row boat ready to go. You can even power it with a small outboard or electric fishing motor if you want to.<br />
<br />

<br />
Stirling engines, which are actually hot air engines, are great engines to make working models from. The hot air engine was an early invention in the 1800s, and looked verty promisimng as a source of power for all kinds of projects. However the low power to weight ratio of these engines makes them most suitable for stationary power rather than for use in vehicles of any kind. That being said several hot air engine powered large ships were built in the 1800s and they worked very well. Hot air engines are of course run by hot air which is heated from a heat source such as coal or wood burning, as it was in these ships.<br />
<br />
Model small scale Stirling engines are usually powered by an alcohol flame or even by a candle flame.<br />
<br />
We have free plans for hot air engines which you can download at our website, and we also have a free plan for a rather unique candle powered engine. This amazing little engine gets its power solely from a candle flame. This is a simple to build vintage project and runs really well. <br />
<br />
When you build model hot air engines the key to success is to get all the moving parts air tight, but as friction free as possible. The engine will then run perfectly. If there is a significant air leak it will not run, and if there is too much friction it will run poorly if at all.<br />

Building your beehives can be a big money saver if you have a beekeeping business or even if you need two or three hives for your own supply of honey.You can purchase commercially built beehives but they are quite expensive and you will also incur delivery charges if you order from a distant supplier.<br />
<br />
<br />
Building beehives is quite simple for anyone who has done any woodworking. Hand tools are all that is required to do the work. A tablesaw can be a help if you want to do the job faster but a hand circular saw or even jigsaw can do it very well.<br />
<br />
Many beekeepers who will be happy to buy hives from you,particularly local people.<br />

A seismograph is a scientific instrument detects and records earthquakes. Needless to say if a large earthquake occurs closeby you do not need anything to tell you what has happened.<br />
<br />
Every day however, there are minor seismic events which may not be noticeable unless you have a sensitive seismograph to make a record of them . These small seismic events do not usually cause any great damage but are interesting to demonstrate that the crust of the earth is in a constant state of movement.<br />
<br />
Using our free plans you can build a very sensitive seismograph which will make a record of even distant earthquakes hundreds or thousands of miles away fro your location. It all depends on the magnitude of the quake naturally. A big earthquake can be detected much further away from you than a smaller disturbance can.<br />
<br />
This seismograph filters out nearby vibrations such as the shaking caused by traffic going by. It records real seismic occurences in the earths crust only. <br />

Build A Cartop Boat For Fishing, Rowing, CampingMany people would love to have a boat to take on vacation with them. A major problem is the need for a trailer to transport the boat behind a car or truck. Not only are good trailers costly, but it can be very inconvenient to park in many places if you have a trailer attached to your vehicle. Parking spots are generally made to accomodate the vehicle only.<br />
<br />
The easy solution to this is to have a cartop boat, which is light enough to load on top of your vehicle, on a luggage ramp. This free plan details how to build a light 11/1/2 foot plywood boat which is ideal for fishing and can easily carry three people with fishing gear.<br />
<br />
It can be loaded by one person but it is much easier to do if you have two people to get it up on top of the car.It is a very stable boat which can be rowed or powered by a small outboard motor and is roomy enough to be comfortable. <br />
<br />
This is an ideal fishing boat and is also great fun just as a general purpose knockabout or rowing boat. Have a look at these free plans now and build yoursaelf a great boat. <a href="http://www.vintageplans.org/boats.html">Boat Plans</a>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06203790028046426987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1106503091624198535.post-36095493780214575582011-07-01T13:55:00.000-07:002011-07-01T13:59:54.144-07:00Free Vintage Plans. Build a Letter Press Or Book PressA letter press,(also called a book press) has many uses for both home and business use. In the handling of vintage plans and vintage projects it can be very useful in many ways. It can obviously be used to press books or documents of various kinds. It can also be very useful in your workshop for applying decorative veneers to wood projects. <br />
<br />
There is really nothing better for holding flat items to be glued together. A letter press can also be used for putting pressure on pretty well anything that is flat in shape for whatever purpose you require to do this.<br />
<br />
It is the natural tool for a bookbinder to use for the purpose of binding new books, or for rebinding old books which are missing covers. It clamps the book tightly and keeps it straight and true while glue in the spine and covers is drying which can be quite difficult to do if you do not have a book press on hand. <br />
<br />
Old magazines can bound together to form annual volumes and the letterpress or book press is the perfect tool to handle this type of work.<br />
<br />
Vintage plans quite often call for pressure to be applied to various types of items which are to be glued together. It is possible to use clamps of various types for this job of course, but sometimes it can be hard to apply a clamp due to the size or shape of the project being worked on. <br />
<br />
Without the need for a clamp a letter press may come in very handy to press various kinds of items together while gluing them. <br />
<br />
The book press or letter press is in actual fact a tool with many uses and is very versatile. The free vintage plan we have here shows you how you can build one at quite low cost by making use of pipe fittings. The cost of buying a commercial book press is very high which is the main reason that many workshops do not have such a tool. Now with our free vintage plan you can build one for yourself and save money. A really good vintage project.<br />

Nothing is a better attraction for birds than to provide them with bird houses where they can build a nest and raise their young. The sight of the young birds being fed,growing up quickly then taking to the air is something really enjoyable.<br />
It is very easy to build simple birdhouses from scraps of wood which the birds will find very attractive as a dwelling place for their nest.You can also build a great bird bath from our <a href="http://www.vintageplans.org/birdhouses.html">free vintage plans</a>. A great vintage project you will love building.<br />

Vintage typewriters which were made from the 1800s right up to the 1970s are quite numerous since so many of them were manufactured for both personal and business use. There is no doubt that the invention of the typewriter changed communications forever with the use of typewritten documents replacing the hand written material which had been in use previously.<br />
<br />
A lot of of these old machines are in reasonably good condition whilst some may need require repairs and adjustments or simply a good cleaning to get them typing again.This is an interesting vintage project which anyone can do. The repairs and cleaning can be performed by anyone who knows what has to be done and how these old machines work. Our article and vintage plans detail how this DIY project is done.<br />
<br />
<br />
The very old machines are really collectors items of course and not very suitable for every day use. Later typewriters which were made in great numbers from the 1920s onward are mostly quite usable still for those people who do not have computers or word processors to rely on . Repair and necessary cleanup of these old and interesting typewriters is a wonderful do it yourself project for anyone. <br />

Chicken coop plans which have good instructions are the best method of building a chicken coop. For people living in the country keeping chickens is a natural choice. You can have a good supply of new laid fresh eggs every day of the week from your pet hens.<br />
<br />
When you dine on a new laid, fresh, home produced egg you will realise very quickly just how much better these eggs are than the commercial chicken eggs, which you buy in the supermarket. <br />
<br />
Even if you are living in the city you can keep a small flock of chickens in your backyard in numerous places. More cities have seen the light and have passed bylaws which allow urban chicken fanciers to keep chickens in their backyards. We have for you some free chicken coop building plans which you can download. These free plans show how to build a really good chicken coop and save a lot of money in the process.<br />
<br />
This makes good sense since so many people require some good quality food, and fresh eggs which are completely free of contaminants and drugs are the best of food. As a byproduct tyhe chicken manure which is produced is a really excellent fertiliser for the vegetable garden, and helps to produce more good quality vegetables for food.<br />
<br />
By feeding your hens quality food which includes grains and vegetables you will get top quality eggs. Your chickens mustt be housed in a well made coop.Download our free chicken coop plans now and you can build a really good chicken coop with ease.

Building flying model helicopters is a really great fun hobby. Experimenting with different types of model to determine which one flies best or highest or for the longest time is a real challenge to a model builder. <br />
<br />
Plans for model helicopters are relatively few and fairly hard to find. We have found two good plans for flying model helicopters which really perform well. You can download these interesting plans for free at our website.<br />
<br />
The first one is a fairly modern type plan from the 1950s for a rubber band powered helicopter. This nice looking model is reasonably easy to construct and flies extremely well. <br />
<br />
The second model helicopter is a very old plan from around the turn of the 20th century. This of course was before any helicopters had been built and flight was still in its earliest days. This model looks nothing like a real modern helicopter but demonstrates the principles on which helicopters work. It also flies and performs remarkably well considering its very simple basic design. Give something different a try and build a model helicopter that really flies.<br />

<br />
Making gemstones from the rough material is a popular hobby for rockhounds.<br />
This is done by grinding, sanding and finally polishing the stones to a high luster.<br />
<br />
A silicon carbide grinding wheel must be used and it is used wet to prevent glazing the stone.We have free plans for you which show you how to build an inexpensive gemstone grinder which is capable of doing very nice work<br />
<br />
The most popular stones to grind are known as cabachons which are smoothly rounded gems. These are also easier to grind than faceted stones.<br />
<br />
With this outfit you can turn out excellent stones for mounting in rings or other jewellery to sell or use for gift giving.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06203790028046426987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1106503091624198535.post-28726645556844507542011-05-20T11:45:00.000-07:002011-05-20T11:49:20.498-07:00Free Plans.Build Whirligigs.

Building whirligigs,which are animated action weather vanes is a great fun project. We have for you, vintage plans with drawings for many easily built whirligig weather vanes. <br />
<br />
After you have built several of these, from the plans, you will see how they operate, and that it is quite simple to design your own.<br />

Metal detectors are great fun to use and can make money for you. You can find buried metal items including coins, jewellery,relics,treasure etc. on beaches,in public parks and similar areas.<br />
<br />
Searching early inhabited areas may turn up some interesting historical records. If oyu lose some jewellery in your own backyard you can probably find it with your metal detector.<br />
<br />
Commercially made metal detectors are available in many models. good ones are expensive however and can run to many thousands of dollars in some cases.<br />
<br />
We have free plans which you can download in PDF format to build your own metal detector. One of them is for a combined metal detector,geiger counter,radio. The other shows how to use a transistor radio as a metal detector. you can have a lot of fun with these.

Early model airplanes were rubber band powered or gliders. Combustion engine and jet models came along at a later period.The earliest models reflect the knowldge of airplane building of that time and are really interesting. Some of them fly extremely well also.<br />
<br />
It is worth while to revisit some of these old models and build them from the plans. you can get the true flavor of what airplane modelling was all about at that time.<br />

Repairing antique clocks is a fun and profitable hobby. Very often when you find an old clock it is not running for some reason. Often the cause of the problem is very simple and easy to rectify. It can be as little as a dirty mechanism. In this case a cleaning using the proper methods may get the clock running again very easily. Or it may be that just a minor repair is needed to get it ticking away sweetly once more.<br />
<br />
When you find an antique clock that is not running you can very often get a really good buy on it. Most people have no idea how clocks work or how to repair them. It is simply a non running clock with little value to them. You may pick it up for very little and just with a small amount of work restore it to good order. Its value then is much higher than when it was not working and you can sell it for a nice profit. Or you may just want to keep it for your own collection rather than sell it for a profit.<br />
<br />
However you do it you can have lots of fun and make money with old clocks.See our website for information about cleaning and simple repairs which uyou can download free in PDF format.<a href="http://www.vintageplans.org/clocks.html">Clock Repair</a>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06203790028046426987noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1106503091624198535.post-5263504136849285682011-05-11T12:43:00.000-07:002011-05-20T12:07:15.686-07:00Free Plans.Electromagnets Making<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdjoYXRMiUKKAK1iCqI1Frf8_8Eit4eOtCUMyOcuAe7r62szSns85ca8Cz7o9y1e3J3zrPYvIzvK6w_gaNDAPuz65aWKBOsev4rV-MTkk55Hc-1ujvLw-Y-H-dXLVKUMjKA3K0pQQI4dW2/s1600/Electromagnetslifting.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="320" width="247" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdjoYXRMiUKKAK1iCqI1Frf8_8Eit4eOtCUMyOcuAe7r62szSns85ca8Cz7o9y1e3J3zrPYvIzvK6w_gaNDAPuz65aWKBOsev4rV-MTkk55Hc-1ujvLw-Y-H-dXLVKUMjKA3K0pQQI4dW2/s320/Electromagnetslifting.JPG" /></a></div><br />

<br />
Electromagnets are extremely powerful for their size. They are often used in car wreckers lots to raise complete automobiles into the crusher.Then they lift the crushed vehicles to a transport truck.<br />
<br />
Even very small electromagnets which are powered by a simple flashlight cell are capable of lifting hundreds of pounds of iron or steel.<br />
<br />
If a small electromagnet is attached to a sheet of steel or iron it is impossible to pull it off by hand. Even the smallest can require 250 pounds of direct pull to pull it off the iron sheet.<br />
<br />
You can make small electromagnets at home quite easily and you will be totally amazed at what they can lift. At our website you will find free plans for making electromagnets which you can download in PDF format.

Picture frames, when purchased in art supply stores, can be very expensive.If you have a print to frame the cost may be more than it is worth.<br />
Artists in many cases also struggle to obtain reasonably priced frames for their work.A good frame for an oil painting may easily cost $50 or more.<br />
<br />
The solution to this problem is to build picture frames from common lumber and moldings obtained from building supply stores and lumberyards. Ordinary lumber in standard sizes can be combined with moldings to make excellent frames which can be painted in colors to complement the picture that is to be framed.<br />
<br />
Frames made in this way are an excellent substitute for purchased frames. They can be matched exactly to the type of picture to be framed whether it be a print, painting or photography etc.<br />
<br />

Many homes have a big attic space which is largely unused because access to it is difficult. Older homes often have a staircase to the attic and have several rooms up there. <br />
<br />
This provides a lot of space for extra bedrooms or utility rooms.<br />
If you have a newer home with only a tiny trapdoor for access to the attic you can very easily install a folding ladder to get up there and you can enlarge the opening if necessary. You can find free plans for <a href="http://www.vintageplans.org/atticladders.html">building attic ladders</a> at our website. We have three different vintage articles which give instructions for building different types of ladders and access.<br />

<br />
Electric scooters are very popular these days. No matter where you go they are to be seen skimming silently along. In most places they do not require a license to drive them and do not have to be registered. They are classed as power assisted bicycles.<br />
<br />
Their popularity is the result of several things. firstly they are fairly inexpensive to buy with most costing well under $1000. Secondly they are very cheap to run. You only have to plug the recharger into a power outlet for a few hours and you are ready to do 20 to 25 miles before the next recharge is needed.<br />
<br />

<br />
This means that they are ideal for commuting to work or just for riding around town for fun or shopping. Almost anyone can ride them and even a small woman can easily handle some of the lighter models.<br />

Build Model Steam Engines<iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KnwwqFl08Nc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />
<br />
Model steam engines are every boys dream toy. Big boys like them also and those who are craftsmen can build model steam engines in the workshop.<br />
There are a few engines which can be built without the use of a metal turning lathe. However the better more advanced engines require that you have lathe capabilities.<br />
<br />

<br />
You can start by building a very simple model just for the experience. You will get a real thrill when you see it running. Then graduate to a more advanced model which will have more power and look more professional in design.<br />
