For Helen's Modern-style barn doorsSteven was a delight to work with. His thoughtful questions, timeliness, and superior craftsmanship made him a true stand out. I would recommend him to any friends, family, or colleagues and will certainly be calling on him again!
John Vestal
For cherry ring boxStephen created two very special small boxes for us, to hold some sentimental keepsake jewelry we were giving as gifts. He was very gracious about getting them to us quickly. He also worked through the design phase with us quite nicely; we discussed different woods and fabrication methods and what would work best. Lovely boxes, and we are very appreciative of both the process and Stephen's support.
