Beautiful wood, great customer service!
Loved working with it. This was my first project with nice, “real” wood, away from the box stores. Aroma is really pleasant plus the final look once the oil was rubbed on was awesome. Can’t say enough about the customer service. I’m new to this and they made it so much easy. Will be getting my materials from here for sure.
