Child's Themed Platform Bed
This Custommade customer requested a bed that fit a particular space in their daughter's bedroom. The catch was that they wanted the bed shorter and narrower than standard requiring a custom mattress as well. The bed was supposed to be themed for a "Princess" or "Cinderella" look so we came up with white slippers with the child's favorite color - PINK - for the bedframe and head/foot boards. The rest is history. We have a creation story posted for this project Bed constructed completely from solid poplar (except for plywood platform (not shown). Hardware re-inforced rails for platform, slippers interlock with frame and headboard/footboard to prevent disconnection between rails and headboard/footboard. All edges rounded for safety and comfort of the child. Gloss paint, premium grade.

For Aaron's Bench5.0Tom Stark, who my wife likes to refer to as "Tony Stark (Iron Man)", was a real pleasure to work with. Tom knows how to serve his customers, a trait that is often lost when dealing with larger furniture companies. Timely, attentive to the details, and always friendly and understanding, you won't be disappointed when working with Tom.
I designed a storage bench for my living room and delivered it to Tom through photos and a 3D model (made in Sketchup). He was able to take those plans and expertly craft the piece we wanted. He arrived at our residence at noon on the dot (when he said he would) and I helped him move the well secured and packaged bench into our residence. My wife is very happy with the end result and we wouldn't hesitate to work with Tom again. Trust me, hire Tom Stark!

For Thin Coffee Table4.3With very little direction from us, a few photos from websites we like and some dimensions, Tom was able to create exactly what we wanted. He was prompt with his initial and follow-up communications with us. He started with a simple sketch and some great questions that teased out exactly what we wanted. As the project came together, he sent us some great photos that kept us informed of his progress. It was shipped just about when he said it would be shipped and when it arrived, his attention to detail was obvious (even his shipping crate was well made). It is well finished, sturdy, and exactly what we were hoping for. We are recommending Tom to several of our friends and will probably use him again.
