Reclaimed Industrial Drop Leaf Dining Table

Matthew Karl did a good job.

Matt created and delivered exactly what we were looking for and even suggested elements we hadn't considered that made the project even better. He was always extremely responsive and organized, and he walked us through the process so that we always knew what to expect, including sending us samples of materials so that we could confirm what we wanted before he used them. He's incredibly talented, and we're very happy that we were able to find him for our project.

Excellent experience. Great end product. Highly reccomend

When we ventured out to get a Custom Made coffee table we had no idea what to expect. We took a gamble on Matthew Karl and it TOTALLY paid off.

We provided him with a photo of a table we saw online as guidance, gave him measurements, and then the complicated part: we told him how we wanted our table to differ from that in the picture. Keep in mind my husband and I know nothing about wood work. The table was also a little complicated, complete with lift top mechanism so part of it converts to an dining table/desk.

Matthew made what could have been a stressful process very easy. He was in constant communication with us, sending us photos of ideas he had, and even met with us in person twice to show us hardware and stain samples.

The finished product was absolutely perfect and right in line with our vague request: "slightly distressed but nothing too crazy." My husband and I are now turning into "coaster people" because we love it so much we want it to last.

It's also worth mentioning that we were working with a very low budget. Matthew was somehow able to source wood, a lift top mechanism, and other hardware that fell within our means and still resulted in a beautiful piece of furniture.

I have already recommended Matthew to several friends that have come over and complimented the table and hope to hire him for more pieces in the future.
