Five stars is simply not enough. Joe made me a Black Walnut Edge Grain top to be used as my Island top. I was a little nervous about spending that kind of $$ on something like this without seeing it in person. What I can say without hesitation is that the top I got exceeded every expectation I had.

In addition to the counter top, I had Joe to do a Maple inlay of a design that i provided a template of. It costed a little more $$, as it should, and again the end product was a tremendous value.

I am so impressed with the quality and beauty, I find myself spending time in the kitchen just to look at it. I can only imagine how nutty this sounds. I hope you all get the opportunity to see one in person. There is not a picture i have seen that does it justice.

Let's talk about delivery. If you dont have 4 grown men ready to off load the crate, you better pay for the lift gate delivery. Joe ships thes things in a very robust crate, it easily weighed a hundred pounds. The crate and Block together weighed 325 pounds. Not something you want to try to pull off a trailer alone. I think the quality they used in the crating is indicitive of the effort they put into the entire process.

Thanks again Joe!
