    This was a totally enjoyable project. Scott was so easy to work with. He made the most beautiful cutting board, custom sized for my RV. We are leaving for a vacation soon and Scott was very helpful in making sure we had what we needed before we left. The board came quickly and very well packaged. We just put it in the RV tonight while we were packing and it looks beautiful. I know we will get many years of enjoyment from this beautiful, handcrafted treasure!

    The cutting board was as beautiful as we expected and the couple who received it loved it. I was a little worried about the time line for getting it but it actually arrived a little earlier than I expected and Scott kept us informed about how the work was going which I appreciated a lot. Thanks.

    The workmanship is excellent, the combination of various woods makes a beautiful cutting board. We can't wait to entertain and serve some cheeses on it.

    Boards arrived quickly and as described. Prompt and thorough communication from the seller throughout the process. Offered additional options prior to finalizing the order, and provided care and maintenance tips. Would definitely do business with him again.

    J.S. Gowdy did an amazing job with my request for a Pasta Board for my grandmother. The quality of the work was exactly what I hoped for. I have never used Custom Made before, but have already recommended the web site to friends and family.
