    Brian's in a league of his own. He's a pleasure to work with, and his work is breathtaking. He sent me pictures throughout the process, and the final piece was even more beautiful in person. The entire experience was perfect.

    These chairs are a work of art and Brian is a delight to work with. We had someone making the dining table to accompany the six chairs, and Brian was gracious enough to include him in design. Highly recommended!

    Brian did a great job on my custom clock. Although it was smaller than I had wanted and the face was slightly crooked, I was very impressed overall that my clock came out otherwise exactly to my specifications! Granted, this plastic clock isn't part of his wood-working specialty, but he still took on the project to help me get what I wanted. Thank you!

    I was very pleased with the cribbage board Brian made for me. And not only was the finished product great, but the who experience was amazing. I received a reply from Brian within 12 hours of posting my project on Custom Made. From there, we proceeded quickly to a formal proposal and the project was finished a week a head of schedule. Custom Made is an awesome service and Brian is a great professional.
