For Rick's Small wooden tubeScott did a great job to create exactly what I was looking for. He was responsive to my needs. Responded quickly to my inquiries and completed the project quickly. Product was packaged well and shipped quickly. Bought two. One for me and one for a gift. I want to keep both! They are beautiful. I highly recommend Scott.

For Hard Maple Cutting Board On LegsI am very happy with the final product, and working with Scott Gowdy was really easy. He kept me informed about the progress of the product with pictures, as well with shipping information. I would work with him again. Thanks again Scott.

For Eco-Friendly Bamboo, Cherry And Walnut Large Cutting BoardScott made a gorgeous custom cutting board to fit into a space provided for it in a custom countertop. My local cabinetmaker finished the edges for a perfect fit.
Working with Scott was an absolute pleasure. He was in constant communication with me, providing drawings and photos. I chose the wood species from his stock and he altered the design to fit the style of my kitchen. The process was professional and thorough. I couldn't be happier with the results.
The only problem was that the Postal Service damaged a corner in shipment. They would do nothing about it because I hadn't purchase insurance. My local cabinetmaker was able to sand down that edge so the damage does not show in the final product. My recommendation is to use UPS or FEDEX or purchase insurance if the Postal Service is used for shipment.

For Cutting board ProjectJ.S. Gowdy did an amazing job with my request for a Pasta Board for my grandmother. The quality of the work was exactly what I hoped for. I have never used Custom Made before, but have already recommended the web site to friends and family.
