Hey members. Has anybody joined the site Homemadetools.net? Just curious if it was worth the money and how the prints and diagrams were.

I joined for a month. Complete waste of money.
99% of the content is gleaned from other sites.

Similar to ordering a book on how to avoid online scams & the package never arrives

I joined a few years back & downloaded/purchased a few drawings. I don't actually remember paying to join though, is that new? Some people were selling plans & I just (maybe naively assumed) the originators were being compensated or proceeds split. But in one case it was just a redirect to their own website. I think some CAD forums have a similar proceeds model where if you download someone's part, they get a cut of proceeds?

I did find some of my own contributions on HomeMadeTools popping up on other forums, but I guess not much different than Googling something & being led back to here for example.

Thanks, it’s what l thought. Going to save my money for something l really don’t need.

Harold Halls website might be more useful.

There's even a steam jenny I made for thawing pipes there that they scooped off Shopfloortalk.
