Woodcrafting Questions

    Where can I purchase finished woodcrafts made from Winfield Collection patterns?
    Almost anyone, no matter what their skill level, can make our unique designs using our full-size patterns and related supplies. We encourage you to give woodcrafting a try! If you just don’t have the time or are not ready to start a new hobby, our designs are frequently sold at local craft shows, on the internet by several licensed sites, or you might check our Woodcrafter’s Forum for a woodcrafter selling finished Winfield Collection projects.
    (Note, however, that we do not endorse, guarantee or warrant the work of any woodcrafter, either on the internet or listing on the Woodcrafter’s Forum and any purchases you make are at your own risk.)


    What makes The Winfield Collection different from other companies that offer woodworking plans?

    Our patterns are all full-size, which means you can get started quickly by simply tracing the pattern lines onto your wood. We also include complete step-by-step instructions, material lists, board cutting layouts, assembly diagrams and detailed painting or finishing directions on every pattern. We make it easy for you to successfully finish every Winfield Collection project you try.


    How can I suggest new pattern ideas to The Winfield Collection?

    We welcome all new pattern ideas. Click here for more information.

    Why are some pieces not drawn on some of my Winfield Collection patterns?
    We purposely do not provide full-size patterns for square and rectangular pieces of wood required in our projects. Most woodworkers agree that these pieces are much easier to cut out on a saw with an edge guide (such as a table saw) using exact measurements from the Bill of Materials rather than trying to follow straight lines traced from a pattern.


    Does The Winfield Collection purchase the rights to original woodcraft projects designed by others?

    Although our talented artists and woodcrafters design most of the projects in our catalog, we encourage designers to submit their best projects for possible purchase and inclusion in our catalog. To find out more or to submit an original idea, Click here.


    How many new projects does The Winfield Collection develop and offer every year?

    We offer over 150 new projects throughout the year developed by our own in-house staff of talented artists and woodworkers. Additionally, we are constantly adding dozens of interesting projects by independent designers from all across the United States and Canada.


    How much wood and supplies are required to complete each Winfield Collection project?

    A List of Materials, similar to a shopping list, appears on most patterns listing the exact boards, wood parts and supplies you’ll need. This same information can be viewed on our online catalog prior to purchasing the project pattern.


    What is the best way to protect my painted outdoor Winfield Collection projects?

    Our outdoor Sealer (#POLYGN) offers maximum protection from the weather and the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays from the sun. Detailed directions for the proper application of our Sealer will be included with your order.


    How do I get the lines from the Winfield Collection pattern onto my wood?

    First lay our pattern transfer paper (Item #CARB or #CARB2) ink side down on the wood. Then locate the pattern on top of the transfer paper and trace all pattern lines. Now you’re ready to cut out or paint your project—it’s that simple!


    Your patterns give painting lines to trace onto one side of the design. What about the other side?
    You’ll create a pattern for the other side when you trace the painting lines onto the first side. Simply use two layers of pattern transfer paper—the bottom layer ink side down and the top layer ink side up. When finished tracing the first side, flip over your sheet to reveal a mirror image painting pattern for the other side.


    Can I sell finished projects or precut wood kits I make from copyrighted Winfield Collection patterns?

    Generally speaking, you can sell finished projects but not precut wood kits for the designs on the patterns that you have purchased. Your limited rights are explained in detail in the Copyrights section of this website.


    Can I advertise finished projects I make from your copyrighted patterns for sale on the Internet?

    Displaying any and all images of our copyrighted designs (including your own photos) on the Internet is only allowed if you become a licensee and comply with certain requirements. Your limited rights apply only to the patterns that you have purchased and are explained in detail in the Copyrights section of this website.


    What kind of information can I post on The Woodcrafter’s Forum and will it be screened?

    You can post anything, offer advice or ask any questions you feel might be of interest to fellow woodcrafters. We perform a screening overview, understandably, of all information before it appears on The Forum. The Winfield Collection, however, accepts no responsibility for the accuracy of this information nor for any consequential damages, whatsoever, that may result from the use of this information.
