  • Long-time member

    A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.

  • Fast shipper

    Customers say that this Maker ships promptly after completing a project.

  • Great service

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

We are a small shop but big on service and quality. We tackle big jobs or small and our specialty is marquetry or inlay.
Located in Tulsa, Ok we are centrally located to provide our customers with great service and delivery.
We like a challenge, so we ask you to challenge us. We work with over 50 different species of wood in both lumber and veneers. We also work with metal and glass so we are very versitile . We have recently added a cnc router to our equipment roster and we also have a Epilog laser for marking and cutting.
I have been in the woodworking business for over 20 years and I have produce projects from a simple engagment ring box to a 60 ft x 20 ft ceiling. I have made inlaid wood medallions from 1" in diamer to 5 feet.
We will work closely with you every step of the way. We will even provide prototypes prior to production when possible.
We do our best to meet all deadlines but if it's a choice between being late and making sure the quality is there, we will go with the quality. We would rather you be upset with us because we took too long than because we sent you a poor quality item.

    I received my custom humidor today. I am blown away. I didn't know craftsmanship of this level was even possible at all let alone in todays quick-fix, disposable world. This piece is perfect from top to bottom. Communication was great, he listened to my needs and worked with me to get the details just right. The humidor shipped with a few extra goodies like a humidor started pack and detailed instruction on seasoning the humidor, which was a nice touch. This maker and his product are truly 5 Stars in every category. If you are considering custom product...consider yourself lucky you have found him and definitely purchase anything from this maker with confidence. It's not often a vision comes to life without a few things getting lost in translation...but it happened today with this custom humidor.

    Understand that even though i gave 2 3 star ratings it does not change my opinion of Michaels work. It is pristine work and my humidor is flawless. The level of craftmanship on this project is next level. I truly love what he has made for me and am excited to use it for several years. The project was supposed to take 6 weeks and he had some equipment issue which took it to nearly 10 weeks. I understand the issues and we both agreed that the communication could of been better but in all seriousness. Thank you so much Michael, it is truly beautiful.

    Michael absolutely knocked it out of the park from start to finish. I was working on a tight timeline and even modified the look of the humidor after the project started. Michael was not only a timely communicator, but accommodated the changes that were requested. Finished project was perfect and arrived timely. Thank you again, Michael. 10/10 recommend

    Michael Benton was a pleasure to deal with on this project. He was very professional and communication was spot on. There were a couple of minor things that were missed upon delivery but were promptly addressed and the final product was fantastic. This humidor is beautiful and I’m betting will last few lifetimes to say the least.

    Whatever risks I would have anticipated in ordering a special gift through the mail were foolish as it regards this item. It has far, far exceeded any expectations I could have had. I could not have imagined the workmanship and cleverness in the design. Our logo was done spectacularly. While I expected a simple vinyl application, it is done with wood! The process was quick and simple from the first moment. Outstanding experience. Michael was perfect.
