A classy, high-strength upgrade to commercially available gun and equipment cases. Built from your choice of domestic hardwood and finished with durable table varnish, these cases are built for plenty of abuse. Each case is built around OEM Pelican case foam (cubed, laser cut or solid) with a secondary wood threshold to increase protection from the elements. Hardware is your choice: Speaker box, steamer trunk, or instrument case feet, corners, hinges and handles to improve portability and increase security. For presentation boxes, the paneled lid can be replaced with glass, plexiglas or epoxy.

Good Morning. My name is Matthew White and I've been a woodworker since 1998. I'm mostly self-taught and I've been adding to my skills ever since.
By day I'm in the Air Force and I found woodworking to be an excellent creative release. It's also given me the opportunity to give back to those who have served.
I've burned murals for conference centers, built shadow boxes for retired Chiefs, and had my work grace offices in Washington D.C. I've had my work presented to Colonels and Airmen completing basic training.
It has been an awesome experience to share and I'm always open to a new project or challenge.
A guide to the best items from the best makers and the stories behind them.
Eric Herman
For Whiskey Bottle Presentation BoxMatthew did an amazing job on my project. He was very timely with his responses. We had a little back and forth to make sure I was happy with how he was planning to make my project. I'm thrilled with the end product. I would work with Matthew again if another project comes up.
Marshall Burks
For Marshall's Dungeons & Dragons Dice BoxThis will be my first and possibly only review as I only got on Custom Made for two items, both of which are completed. I am happy with this box and I never thought it would be possible until now. I thank the creator as he was professional and orderly, this was completed in a timely manner as it was well within the time limit. They delivery was however strange but not to the owner, I just don’t recommend UPS at times but that’s because I live in the boonies. I recommend this creator and hope more projects in his way. As for me, thank you and goodbye, you have been a great help.

Jesse Garcia
For Air Force Occupational Badge Shadow BoxThe shadow box I ordered turned out amazing! For future needs of this nature, I will look to Delta Black Custom Woodworking before looking anywhere else. The custom work I needed turned out perfect! Once the item was shipped, I was provided with information regarding how to affix accouterments and if in the event the item had defects, the door was already opened on how to get it corrected (this was not needed as the items was packaged extremely well). I cannot wait to present this item during an Air Force retirement ceremony!

For Military Shadow TableLate last year I commissioned Matt to build my Military Retirement Shadow “Box” Table. I have been busy since then with a move and looking for a new job, so it has taken a little while to write a review. But, I wanted to make sure to write a review to complement Matt on building a great table. He custom made the table to meet my request and was very cooperative throughout the process. I laid out what I wanted and he made recommendations…the outcome was a wonderful table that I was happy to use capture my military career. Thanks Matt!

For Custom Badge ShadowboxWow, Matt truly has a gift! The finished product was exactly as envisioned and discussed, and the time and attention he devoted to every last detail was evident throughout the project. Aside from his expert craftsmanship, he went above and beyond to ensure he had all the details of the desired outcome and communicated exceptionally well as the project progressed, giving status updates along with photos of the work in progress. Five of five stars across the board - I would definitely work with Matt again! You will be glad you did too!
