    From the moment the job was accepted, Gerald communicated at each step along the way, making sure he was making exactly what I had ordered. The shadow box was delivered yesterday and was everything and more than I had imagined. Timeliness and shipping were right on queue. I will likely have more work for Gerald in the future!

    Working with Gerald was a pleasure. He communicated on every step of the project and the value is great. The frames are just what I wanted.The only reason I didn't give a 5 star rating was because the rabbets on all of the frames were uneven and inconsistent. I had to use woodworking tools to make the pictures fit properly. That being said, I would certainly use Gerald again, however, I would probably request a deeper rabbet to be on the safe side.

    Couldn't be happier with the work Gerald did for me with these boards. They came out perfectly and well before the projected completion date. He delivered them himself and made sure that I was happy. We had a small miscommunication and Gerald went out of his way to make sure he finished the project exactly as intended. Will definitely work with him again!!

    I chose Gerald for my project based on what I could see of his work. From the beginning, he was very responsive, knowledgeable and professional. He created my product as we agreed. Because I wanted to order many of the same item, I asked for a prototype before placing my order, and he provided one. I hope to continue our work together. Gerald is a good listener and aims to please. Thanks for a job well done. I look forward to future projects together!

    For Business Card Holders

    I absolutely LOVE my new business card holder. I was originally going to use it for my waiting room, but it was so pretty I had to put it on my desk. I am commissioning a second one for my waiting room. It is just polished enough to bring out the natural beauty of the wood, without making it super shiny, and the cards sit very nicely level in the holder (because I'm a little neurotic about that sort of thing). I would highly recommend Gerald's work, it's beautiful!!

    Superb work! GHSchmidt Woodworking was a pleasure to collaborate with. The completed project was better than the prototype it was based on. The level of communication was beyond expectations, and the price was well worth the completed product. Highly recommended!!

    Gerald was a pleasure to work with!! He kept in constant communication w/ me every step of the way, sending me pictures of his progress and checking with me on details. He is a master with wood. Money well spent.

    Working with Gerald was, in a word, outstanding. Not only was he quick to obtain key details on the concept, leading to a prompt proposal, but he offered important suggestions for improvement that yielded a joint creation for which we can both be proud. Gerald used quality materials and incorporated finishing elements that make the product both unique and enduring.

    Gerald was wonderful to work with, made a beautiful blanket chest for me and was very reasonably priced for what I wanted. I stumbled on CustomMade after searching for the specific size chest I needed (and not finding it), and within one day I was communicating with Gerald about the specifics. He had excellent suggestions that made the final product much better, and worked with me as my ideas evolved. I have the beautifully crafted chest in my home after only two weeks! Thank you, Gerald! I will definitely work with you again!
