Custom Carved Cutting Boards
Custom Cutting boards have a serious work side with juice groove and a decorative 3-D relief carved side. Many art images are available to suit the owner's style and needs. Personalize with text of your choice. These make wonderful one-of-a-kind gifts for that special occasion. While typically made of hard maple, other woods are possible including walnut as shown in the photos.

Meet the Maker
BERT RABBE
Beraht, LLC
Welcome! I am the owner, operator, designer, sawdust maker and everything else including janitor of this little specialty woodworking business. After a career in the business world, I am now following a passion to create works in and of wood. My goal is to deliver to you, my customer, projects that are done right, meeting (hopefully exceeding) your quality expectations. I began my business in 2008 under the name: North Texas Woodworks. I designed and built tables for kitchens and dining rooms, bookshelves, cabinets and several other furniture items. In late 2014 I had bilateral knee replacement surgery that could have gone better! I was sidelined for about 3 years, but got back to sawdust making in 2018.
Changed the product focus to somewhat smaller items including the lighted "Stream Tables" sized for sofa tables and entry halls. With the change came a different name: Beraht, LLC. Beraht is a German word that can mean bright as well as Bert. Seemed like a perfect fit for lighted tables made by a guy named Bert! Beginning in 2024 I have added parametric wall art to my offerings, both standard designs as well as custom and personalized options. Be sure to check out my custom parametric flags!
I own two large format Computer Numerical Control (CNC) router systems and cut and carve special shapes and designs for individuals and for businesses. I can carve images and text in wood to create signs for your business, decor for your home, and gifts for your friends and family. With this automation, orders can be for an individual or for many repetitive items. Examples of past work include things as different as a carved applique for an antique sewing machine, signs, plaques, countless styles and shapes of art boards for paint and epoxy artists, and even ornate carved panels for residential and business doors.
Let me know how I can use my sawdust making skill to be of service to you.

Sep 14, 2014Bert made an AMAZING table for us. We started out with a very rough idea of what we wanted, and he helped us refine and refine based on some pictures we sent and a conversation. Then he did a mock-up to show us, and we refined a little more. His attention to detail and craftsmanship were beyond impressive. One of the most difficult things about our table was that we wanted to be able to store the (huge) leaves inside the table. Bert worked on that for quite a while until he finally got it to work. Ultimately, we ended up with a beautiful table that was exactly what we wanted. It's a one-of-a-kind work of art. Bert was incredibly easy to work with and very accommodating. We will be using him to design a desk for us next. You won't go wrong with Bert!

Dec 16, 2013This is my first experience with Custom Made. It was absolutely wonderful and would highly recommend them to anyone. My maker was Bert Rabbe of North Texas Wood Works. Bert is a true professional. He took my concept and turned it into a beautiful piece of work. Not only is his work above and beyond, his correspondences keeping me up to date were greatly appreciated. Be assured, I will be a returning customer and you will be highly recommended. Sincerely, Dean Clark

Dec 5, 2013We are extremely happy with the finished custom table. Bert communicated with us through the entire project and even changed some details when an issue came up of the safety of our children and the pedestal base. We would recommend him to anyone who wants a great quality and professionally built solid piece of furniture.
