I have been pretty successful doing yahoo (or google) search using woodworking plans or similar terms.One of the sites where I found some interesting stuff is http://woodworkingplansforfree.net which has some plans (although you need to dig a little to find them).There are also some videos and other stuff.I also eventually purchased the Ted's Plan (advertised everywhere) as there are so many plans included for one cost that is was worth it to me.
