Great service

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

We are a small family owned business located in the south east corner of Wisconsin. We have been making furniture and cabinets for over 30yr's, We don't particularly specialize in any one style of furniture, but I do favor Mission style. We make everything from custom Jewelry box's and humadors, to a complete line of furniture. If you can tell us what you want we can make it. We have complete wood shop. We mill all own stock from hand picked lumber. Every piece we make is hand crafted. We believe we don't just ship items, we also ship our reputation.

Lynn Laughlin

For Cook book case

Tom was able to create exactly what I wanted. He is a fabulous carpenter. The book case is precisely what I asked for the size and stain are perfect for its new location. Communication with Tom was very easy. When I have another project Tom will be the one I call.

For Arts& Crafts Entertainment Center

We are thrilled with the TV stand produced by Tom at Fox River Woodworking. We came up with a concept and style and he came up with a beautiful design. The end product is beautiful and well built. We were very pleased about how easy it was to work with Tom. The job was done quickly and the price was great. We will use Tom for our next project.

Randall Craig

For Asian Style Bench

My experience with Fox River Woodworking was better than I ever could have imagined. I had a very specific custom request. Thomas made sure that he understood what I wanted; he anticipated issues that I hadn't considered; most importantly, he produced a truly beautiful, as well as practical, piece of furniture. Communications were frequent, timely, and clear. The project was completed incredibly quickly. Throughout the process, I felt not only that I was dealing with a skilled craftsman and thorough professional but also with a friend and neighbor.

For Alyssa's Media Cabinet

We are very happy with our media cabinet that needed special angles. Thomas was great to work with and took the time to understand what we were looking for. He was always quick to respond to questions and created our unique media cabinet in fine timing. We would work with him again!
