    Cynthia & Nathan were a PLEASURE to work with. I wanted a very specific custom chess board for my Dad with specific engraving and specs. and the throughput was 100%. I was a little bit nervous because I have never used this site; however, Cynthia was extremely professional and responded to all of my emails in under 24 hours. Anything that is custom, they will send proofs for approval. They told me the exact timelines and what to expect and everything was exactly as stated. I am an EXTREMELY detail oriented person, everything down to the wood grain direction was done perfectly. I can't thank them enough. I increased the board size and the price was extremely fair. They will work with you on everything, you just have to ask.

    I will DEFINITELY work with them again and am so grateful for what they made for my dad and I.

    Thank you so much Cynthia & Nathan
