Handmade Desk Set
This is an executive desk set for professionals. They are made from some of the most beautiful hardwoods - exotic and domestic. Each desk set is about 10" long and 5" wide and 1" thick. Each set incorporates a solid wood pen/pencil holder, a place for securing a standard sticky note pad, and a business card display. The base is built from solid figured hardwoods with precision-cut chamfers on all four sides. Ideally, the buyer can add a brass name plate to the front. The pen/pencil box is mitered and has a special top with a round opening - it has then been pegged into the base at four points for stability. The backstop for notepads is also pegged into the base at two points. It has been routed exact for a perfect slot to display business cards. They are then sanded through 400 grit and hand-rubbed with at least 3 coats of varnish. They are buffed and ready to use. They are wrapped in tissue paper, bubble wrapped and shipped with insured shipping. They give you a feeling that it was made personally for you - and it was!

For Double-Sided Cutting Board ~ Exotic Wood2.2Not real happy with end result. It's not symmetric not consistent and for what I received I think it is way overpriced. This was my first experience with custom made not a great beginning. Leon

For Double-Sided Cutting Board ~ Exotic Wood5.0This is the most beautiful and unique cutting board I've ever seen. I bought it as a birthday present for my boyfriend and I couldn't be happier with the result. The website is quick and easy to order from. The cutting board arrived a lot sooner than I thought. It was packaged securely and there was no issues when I opened it. I am impressed. I will definitely be ordering again.

For Cutting Board Two Sided W/ Breadboard Ends5.0Patrick Joyce did a fabulous job crafting 2 "boards" to serve as a "table" over our unused master bathtub. Everyday the gorgeous boards are a work of art, hiding wine bottles stored beneath them. In our small 1400 square foot 2 bedroom condo, when our house guests use the guest bedroom, the beautiful table over our master bathtub becomes precious private surface space for "whatever". For example, I move some sports gear from the guest closet and place it on part of the table. I have even grabbed a pillow and lounged on the table while having a cup of coffee. At a party, a board can be easily removed from the tub and used in the kitchen, dining, living, or balcony space as a buffet or bar service. A portable glass waterfall table is over the bath fixtures part of the master bathtub. Since everything is portable, in a few minutes the space can be returned to a pure bathtub. I sent Patrick a photo of the tables over the tub, which he might add to this review. Patrick did a great job of packing, addressing, and insuring the boards. When FedEx lost a package for a bit, Patrick immediately communicated with FedEx and me, and got things back on track. Patrick is a wonderful artist, and a good manager. Custommade worked well as the website portal.
