For bible box custom orderGlenn is an outstanding craftsman. The box I ordered was exactly as ordered and the work on it was more beautiful than I expected. Glenn was terrific to work with. He was in touch with me throughout the project and was very easy to work with. I highly recommend Glenn for a project Like this. I’m happy beyond all expectation! Thanks Glenn!

For Custom Box for Family BibleThe project was to construct a custom case for showcasing a family bible from the 1700s.. The result was an elegant design with excellent woodwork, style, and finish along with customized inlay/engraving of the christian cross, national coat of arms, and family name. The piece has an elegant and dignified appearance. The woodwork is superb and you can tell that a very professional craftsman has produced this piece. We are very pleased with the result.

For Custom Chef Knife BoxI wish I could upload a picture or two of the final product just so any reader would be able to see what I'm describing here. It took me a couple of months researching the web before I settled on Glenn as the choice for this project. I saw one of his fly-fishing rod boxes and it was a sealed deal. This is classic old-world workmanship not readily found just anywhere. In the end, it's a one-of-a-kind family heirloom now and the recipient couldn't be happier. Seriously highly recommended if you want the best, most unique American Craftsmanship for your project. Thanks, Glenn for exceeding expectations...

For Custom Wooden Display BoxesGlenn built a perfect custom display case to exact specifications for showcasing a valuable document. He provided a 3-D CAD model at the start to confirm my requirements and to give me a precise idea of what the finished product would look like. He also kept me informed of his progress along the way, providing pictures of the work in progress. The project ended up taking longer than promised, but it was worth the wait, as it turned out exactly as I had hoped.
