For Laptop StandMoonlight Forge was fantastic. Communication, ideas, finished product… all A's in my book. Cost was reasonable and Ben was very knowledgeable. The stand I had designed was built exactly to my specifications. Ben even offered some great ideas to improve the project along the way. Can't be happier!

For Coffee tableThis was our first Custom Made experience but certainly won't be our last - we could not be happier! Ben was AWESOME to work with and so instrumental in helping to shape our vision. He offered great suggestions and kept us in the loop with weekly updates and snapshots. Not only is the finished table beautifully made and exactly what we were looking for, but we feel like we've made a new friend in the process. Thanks, Ben!

For Industrial/Rustic Wine RackBen was excellent to work with. He was very good at keeping me informed of my project's status, verifying details, and the craftsmanship is excellent. He is also just a very nice guy, and I would highly recommend using him for any project.

For A metal standBen was great to work with, I'm very happy with what he built for me and would look him up again in the future.
For years I've been using an old typewriter as a computer monitor stand. Recently I purchased a new TV (which can also serve double duty as a monitor) which was just a little too large/expensive to perch on the typewriter. Ben worked with me to take my rough idea through to a perfect solution to my problem.
Thanks Ben!

For Industrial Coffee TableBen was flexible enough to show us a variety of potential woods when we realized reclaimed elm would be hard to come by, different finishing techniques to give the aged look we wanted, and even different base options for our table. This made me feel like I was really part of the creation of our coffee table, and even if it doesn't look that different than something you could find in a store, I know it was made with care and love right here in the Mid-Atlantic by a local artisan.
