The Edo bench is a Japanese inspired design. My benches are available in cherry, oak, walnut, and mahogany. This site doesn't allow for a very good description of services so it's best to contact me for details.

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I have forty years of experience in the woodworking. I build custom designed furniture from both new and reclaimed wood. My specialty is designing and building tables, buffets, bars, kitchen islands and similar pieces. I like to incorporate other craft items (and items provided by client ) in my work such as blacksmith hardware, old glass and stained glass. Once a proposal is agreed to I will provide both a detailed drawing and a stain or paint sample. As a project progresses I give updates and photos of the stage of completion. I have an excellent on time completion rate. Please see my reviews from past clients.

Although I include drawings after a proposal is agreed to if you would like a design prior to signing a proposal my design fee is 50.00 per hour. This fee is waved if later a proposal is agreed to.

    I am thrilled with the kitchen table that John hand made for us in our new Farmhouse. It is just exactly what we wanted and looks better than we ever imagined. John was helpful, accommodating, and communicated with us throughout the course of the project. I would work with him again and highly recommend him for any custommade project. Carrie S.

    From the outset of my experience with Custommade.com I was impressed with the number and quality of bids received. I published a specific specification, desired wood and a very short timeline for my custom table. John gave me two options and a great bid price. He committed to the short timeline. After accepting his proposal he took the time to come to see the historic home and took the time to match the stain of the table to other furniture. He is exceptional.

    Our new bench, built by John, has just arrived and we could not be happier. John built us a bench to our exact specifications based on a photograph of a historic bench that we provided. The craftsmanship is superb and we highly recommend him.

    I manage an interior design firm and found John when we needed a custom kitchen table for our clients. John was very professional, friendly, and communicative from the start and throughout the entire process.

    John would call and email to check in when I would otherwise let that slip off my plate. He made house calls -as we live locally to him, to bring by samples.

    John always made sure we were satisfied with each step before he would move on with the project.

    I can't reccommend him enough, and we can't wait to work with him in the future!
