Project Information

We received an e-mail from a soldier over seas, he wanted to order an anniversary present for his wife since he won't be here to give it to her personally. We were touched by his request and gladly accepted his order, the catch was we only had 5 days to build it and ship it. Even though it's just a basic cedar chest, 5 days is pushing it for our shop. A few long nights and we got it done.

A beautiful job with no evidence of "rush job". She will love it and he will be grateful you went the extra mile to get it done in the time allowed.

I like it Todd…the chest and the back story both. Would like to build my daughter one for Christmas but having issues finding the cedar.
