Custom Estate Sign

Mike was outstanding to work with. I had a relatively tight timeline for a gift and he delivered ahead of schedule. He was prompt and proactive with communication - sending me photo updates of my custom keepsake box project throughout the process. The final product was extremely high quality and a big hit as a gift for my grandfather. I recommend Mike highly and would certainly work with him again!

Mike Matthew created a beautiful, exquisite chest for us to memorialize our deceased infant son. The woodwork is beautiful, with elegant gold-plated handles, so that the chest can easily be moved from room to room. Mike engraved the chest with our son's name, and included a glass frame on the underside of the lid so that when opened, our son's hand and foot prints are viewed. He also included a drawer at the bottom of the chest so that we could store our son's birth certificate and other related documentation. Mike included thoughtful details, such as a magnet (unseen) at the back of the drawer so that it will always stay on its track. He also included beautiful gold hinges so that the chest will always close completely and the wood won't warp over time to do exposure to moisture. He included a lock so that we can keep the contents private. Finally, Mike was a pleasure to work with. He listened to our ideas and provided several of his own that together resulted in a beautiful chest. He completed the chest well ahead of schedule and was always prompt and responsive.

I had a great experience working with Mike. He was helpful with planning the project too as I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted. His suggestions made the piece great. He communicated well while he was working on the project with updates and pictures. The project was done on time and arrived when he said it would. The detail in the design is wonderful. I will definitely work with him again.

It was one of the best experiences I've ever had. Mike was very knowlegable, and knew questions to ask about details I hadn't even thought of.

Mike is a professional artisan who provided me useful advices before starting. My project as a litter box cover for my cat was finished on time and has been delivered for 3 months. My cat loves it, and so do I because of its well-built quality. Highly recommended as Mike is a fine carpenter.
