Custom Made To Order Poker Case - Coffee Bean And Elm Burl
Are you serious about your poker game? This was a commission to create a custom poker case as a gift. The case is constructed from Coffee Bean, which looks a lot like Oak but harder to machine. The top is enhanced with a veneer of Carpathian Elm Burl. The entire case is finished with polyurethane for durability. Although the case looks like a chest of drawers the top actually lifts off to revel a pair of removable trays. The upper tray hols 200 chips, a deck of cards and a dealer puck. The lower tray holds 300 chips. The interior of the case is lined with green felt and included 500 poker chips from ESPN World Series of Poker 100 of each color, a dealer puck and a new deck of playing cards. We can also substitute Casino style chips upon request. All the hardware is brass and the top locks down for easy transportation to the next poker night. Also available without poker chips and custom engraving is available upon request and quoted at time of order

Nov 19, 2015I could not be happier with my experience working with Mike. I contacted him asking for a custom order and he was extremely helpful in finding me exactly what I was looking for in order to create a personal and meaningful engagement gift. He found the exact wood I was looking for and used it to create stunning toasting flutes. Thanks so much Mike!!

Sep 8, 2015Mike was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. He was able to make the toasting flutes with Koa wood at my request to match the grooms' rings & love for Koa wood. He was also able to make a cake & knife server set using the Koa wood. My friends received many compliments on the uniqueness and quality craftmanship of their flutes & server set. If I could post photos from the wedding photographer, I would! I recommend Mike and would work with him again!

Apr 13, 2015Were it possible to give this Maker Zero stars I would. I ordered and paid for these Toasting Flutes in good faith for my sisters wedding in Hawaii as a decor focal point, and as a precious keepsake for her and her Fiance. After submitting the information to the Maker to be engraved on the Flutes, which should have been the Bride and Grooms names as well as the date, the Maker misspelled their names in a message to me. I corrected this to him as is documented in another message. In fact, I corrected him twice because of this and actually verified a third time that he check the spelling prior to engraving to ensure the names were spelled correctly. He confirmed in a message to me that he checked the spelling. Well, the flutes arrived today- with BOTH names misspelled. Unbelievable. The wedding is in a week, and I have no way to find a replacement at this point. I am not some crazy customer venting-I have documentation of every message I have had with this Maker. Not that the spelling would have even mattered after all, because In addition, upon receipt one of the flute wood bases was completely broken because of the way he packed it for shipping. There was literally NO padding, nor padded wrapping of the flutes in the big usps box. No padding sitting on top or bottom of the flutes. Of course they are going to break! What kind of craftsman who takes pride in his work, would ship a precious item in this shoddy fashion? They wouldn't of course- Do not order from this Maker. -Disappointed and Disgusted

Jan 13, 2014Fantastic, very happy with the final product looks so much better in hand than it does in photos.... and the photos were already great. Would certainly recommend working with Mike. Couldn't be happier with the product and process.
