Custom Kitchen Island With Butcher Block Top
Custom kitchen island with commercial grade butcher block top. Island is 9' in length composed of three (3) 30" base cabinets and an 18" bookcase cabinet for cookbooks. Cabinets are made from flat sawn white oak in a classic european design. Nine (9) drawers and concealed in the 3 larger base cabinets. Stain color was custom blended and selected by the customer. Counter top is a commercial Maple Rift sawn and 1 1/4" thick. The counter top is cantilevered to accommodate bar stools. Each custom cabinet component is milled in our modern cabinet shop using state of the art CNC routers. From the CNC machine the panels are cleaned and sent to the finish shop where stain and a lacquer top coat are applied. After assembly each unit is thoroughly inspected prior to delivery to the jobsite where final placement and assembly takes place. Once secured in its final location the counter top is added and secured. This island installation also included two (2) low profile outlet strips permanently mounted under the counter top overhang. This island was the centerpiece of a complete kitchen renovation and is the focal point for family gatherings.

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

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!
