the great thing about using me and custommade.com for your furniture needs is you can get what you WANT - without settling for what is already made. this is one example of a custom coffee table i designed WITH the customer. how do you want yours? -tim Here are some details on the project from the maker: as discussed, this proposal is for a 48" X24" X 16" coffee table. it will be made with either a reclaimed chestnut or reclaimed oak top. it will be about 1" thick and be smooth to the touch while still retaining some of the characteristics of reclaimed wood. the base will be made of salvaged steel and will have 4 legs, two side rails and some cross bracing that will be basically unseen.

I am an independent artist/artisan working exclusively in reclaimed, recycled, upcycled and found materials.
i make the useless useful again. i make worthless things priceless.
from conception, to making it to sweeping up, i am a one-man operation - by design.
my work is not for everyone. my customers are people who want truly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that are made fairly and ethically from locally salvaged materials - with as small a footprint as i can muster.
i will make and ship things all over the united states (depending on size) but i prefer to work regionally (Boston to NYC and thereabouts).
listed on this page are some pieces i've made for others and some pieces i have available for sale. but what i really want to do is design and make what YOU want. let's do it!
be good,
tim
oh yeah, at youtube.com/timsway you will find more than one hundred video of things i've made.

For custom table made out of antique wood window shutterI love my new coffee table. Tim was very easy to work with and understood exactly what I wanted. Suggested some changes that made it great!
Thanks again!

For Reclaimed wood/steel Dining tableI love my table, it's exactly what I was looking for. Beautiful, unique, sturdy, and tells a story. Tim was a pleasure to work with. Communication was quick and pleasant, and the entire project was finished ahead of schedule with zero problems. Since he had to ship it across the country, he built it in such a way to ship it most economically, which was greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend Tim Sway Perspectives, and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again in the future.
