THANK YOU FOR A BEAUTIFUL WORKBENCH
Kelly loves it - it is really beautiful - he is very happy with it and will get it all put | | together today - everything is there it appears - he did not assemble it at my house and it was a busy Christmas week end with all the families and he lives quite a piece from me so is looking forward to using it - Kelly is an artisan finish carpenter and I was really hesitant to purchase something for him. But he was totally impressed with it, and said you do a wonderful job - I was impressed with that statement because being in the profession, he has very high standards. . . - bottom line - "he loves it"
THANKS AGAIN

 | | Hi John,
|
I am happy to report that the beautiful workbench arrived yesterday around 2:00 |
| | PM. The man who delivered it was really sweet, and stayed to help me open it. Everything was included and there was only one small ding on the bottom of the bottom shelf that I can easily smooth out. I did not put it on the report. I gave the man some cookies and he was really happy as he was hungry.
Anyway, it all turned out fine. And the vise came later on the afternoon. I now have all that need to put the workbench together. But it is SO cold out there, I will wait for it to warm up a bit. This is the coldest it has been yet this year!
Thank you for making this special piece for me. I will use it with great pleasure.

Wow, the work bench looks great! We put it together with no problem and put it to |
| | use last night.
We look forward to getting the gardening bench this coming Spring. The deer carving was a nice surprise and does go well with the quote. Hope you have a good weekend. Thanks again,

 | | Dear John:
| The bench arrived in fine shape. Well packed and delivered. I put it together in |
| | about 2 hours...not bad for me who is so particular. Love the bench and the inscription and "sloop" came out perfectly. I can see why your BBB rating is "A". With all your other chores there you always found time to answer my questions during a busy day.
Thank you: it's been a great experience dealing with you. Who knows with all the stuff I have I might get a smaller bench to complement this one. I will not mention that to my wife right now. Wishing you pleasant holidays. Regards, Bob Payne Chesapeake Beach, MD October 22, 2009
 | | Dear John,
| My workbench was delivered by an 18 wheeler rig. He delivered the workbench |
| | without any difficulties. I signed for the package and we had a short cordial chat.
After the driver left, I immediately opened the box. Everything was in mint condition. The table top is beautiful. I'll put it together this coming weekend. I like all the lettering and the stenciled icthus fish. It's gorgeous. When I showed everything to my girlfriend she was elated to the point of almost being speechless. That's saying a mouth full because my girl friend is intelligent with an expansive vocabulary. My our Lord Jesus continue to anoint your hands to build wonderful workbenches. Your business has a unique niche. You build a hybrid type bench. One that's for common use as a workbench and at the same time can be used as a wood workers bench. What a niche especially for the price. As you know, wood workers benches are very expensive.
Thanks again for the beautiful work. One of my first projects could possible be to make myself a long bow. I hope to stay in touch with you. You've been a blessing to me. I've already told many of my friends about my workbench and also that you are a Christian. I have a friend that visited your website because I told him that you make a reloading bench. He reloads his own ammo. He has loaded tens of thousands of rounds and was seriously thinking about getting a reloading workbench. If you ever see the name Chuck Schumann place an order, that would be my friend.
Kindest regards because of our Lord Jesus Christ, Bruce Southard Missouri City, TX October 9, 2009

I received my Constitution reloading bench last week and put it together Saturday. |
| | It is fantastic! What a well made and well thought out product. It will last a lifetime. I notice you have a fly tying bench as well. I may order this from you in a few months. Let me know if you run any specials. However, you will need to get a trout carving and get rid of that bass!
Thanks very much and it is good to know someone still has pride in their workmanship.

 | | Hi John:
|
About 2 minutes after we got off the phone yesterday UPS Freight came by with the |
| | Shipment of Workbenches. We put the Service desk and one bench together. They look spectacular and really make the shop. They are the exact touch I was looking for. I plan on ordering more for the shop next door to keep the theme going. We've already had compliments from visitors to the shop, and all of the crew think they are amazing. We have one mechanic who now has his own bench and is so enthusiastic about his new workspace.
I'll send more pictures as we get the shop together. Thanks again and I will be contacting you soon.

 | | John,
| My bench arrived last week and I am thrilled!
For your FYI, the box looked perfect but the bench was damaged. The shelf was |
| | cracked. I repaired the shelf and assembled the bench! It looks great!
I just thought you should know that for future customers! I remember your warning about signing for damaged goods, and I can honestly tell you looking at the package you would never guess the amount of damage to the bench! Just trying to help you guys out with info, I am not complaining.
Thanks again and keep building great benches!

 | | Hi John,
|
I finally was able to get back to carving and the table you made for me is not only |
| | attractive but is also much easier on my back. The layout of the table is perfect for my carving projects. I have included some photos. I hope that you can advertise in some of the Carving magazines as your workbenches are a perfect match. I want to Thank You again for all the work that you put into my table. The hole pattern on the bench top and the second shelf are perfect.

 | | John,
| Just wanted to drop you a line letting you know I received my new bench. Had |
| | some logistic issues with UPS freight, but finally got the bench today. What a beauty! It was a cinch to set up, and it looks perfect in my reloading room. Thanks for a great bench!

We could not have found a better retirement gift for our friend. And the awesome |
| | customer service that was provided just made this a completely great experience. You kept me informed and patiently answered my anxious e-mails.
You also went above and beyond by tracking down a trout carving for the bench! John you could be the poster boy for outstanding customer service. And it was 100% genuine.
It is refreshing that someone still takes pride in their product and knows how to treat the customer. Our friend was utterly lost for words when he received this bench. Thank You Thank You Thank You John for making this a truly great experience! The bench is stunning! A Craftsman's work of art.

 | | Hi John,
|
How are you? You probably won't even remember me unless its as "That weird guy |
| | who ordered the bench and then never opened it...." Anyway, Its been a pretty hard spell for me where I was forced to change jobs twice and move both times... But I never ended up with a place where I could set up my shop and unpack my bench... Until now. You can see from the email thread...That was April of 2008 so its been almost a year.
This weekend I unpacked everything and assembled the bench... Its beautiful, strong and sturdy and I'm thrilled I asked you to put the vice on it as that's really useful for me. It just looks great. Thanks again and hope this note finds you doing well

I wanted to let you know that you have another more than satisfied customer!
I finally got out in the garage to put our three Plantation benches together, and I |
| | was extremely pleased with the design, fit, & finish of them all.
The modifications you did to clear the cinder blocks around the foundation worked fine.
Now, I can start working on that "Things to do" list which is getting longer all the time!
Thanks again for building such nice products, best of luck to you and your family in the future!
Kenny Kovach West Friendship, MD March 1, 2009
 | | John,
| Yes I received my Plantation Workbench and it is outstanding! I ended up going to |
| | UPS Freight here in Cincinnati area to pick it up myself on Monday afternoon. UPS was fairly backlogged with all the severe winter storms that have passed through in the last week. Anyway as I mentioned the Plantation Workbench is outstanding; it’s even more than I was expecting! The quality and craftsmanship are impressive! You do great work and I can tell you take tremendous pride in creating such a perfect and practical workbench!
As I joked in my last e-mail, my wife was so impressed she was ready to order some baskets from “The Pottery Barn” and put the workbench inside the house. Like many folks mentioned I’m hesitant to put that first “ding” in it.
I know I will get many, many years of use out of such a solid and durable workbench. I’ll attempt to re-send a message with photos later today.
Thanks for such a great product and such personal service.
Chris Chaney Morrow, Ohio February 5, 2009
 | | John –Wow I'm Lovin it!.
| Great job. The workbench is everything you said it would be. It was packed well, easy |
| | to put together (just about 20 min as you said) and absolutely rock solid. I love it. My 4 boys love it…and, yes, my wife Renee was even excited about it once she saw the quality and especially the engraving on the front. Very nice and a conversation piece, for sure. I’m sure one of my kids will have it someday when I’m too old or have moved on…. Thanks again – you were great and I am very satisfied! Feel free to quote me. Regards January 30, 2009 Jeffrey W.

 | | Dear John,
| I wanted to thank you again for making my son, Sam's, Christmas so special.
The quality of the bench is remarkable. I can see him passing it on to his kids someday.
Your efforts to ensure delivery before Christmas is greatly appreciated. You really |
| | went the extra mile to make it happen.
I can honestly say I have not run across many companies with such attention to design, craftsmanship and service.
Hope you have a great 2009. January 20, 2009 Greg Fix Glendale, MO
 | | Dear John:
| I had to wait until now (Christmas eve) to put my workbench together. My new patio |
| | was finally finished three days ago. I just wanted to let you know that it is a most beautiful table. It will be used as a table bench when I bar-b-que! Everything about this workbench is absolutely superior to anything I have seen.
Congratulations and Best Wishes! Your love for your craft is definitely evident your product. Merry Christmas and A Happy and Prosperous 2009!

 | | John,
| It's very rare these days to find excellent customer service combined with stellar |
| | quality craftsmanship.
My husband loves the quality of his new workbench and is redoing an entire room around it!! Thanks John! Michelle Hunt December, 1 2008 Whitehouse Station, NJ
 | | John,
| I want to tell you the "Plantation" Workbench you made for me is a piece of art!
I have had numerous people tell me what a great looking product it is and, when I show |
| | them my name on the bench, they are even more impressed.
I am very pleased with my workbench and you should be proud of your workmanship. I feel guilty about even working on it!
The workbench was received without damage at my daughters house and I just got it set up.
Thanks very much,

 | | Hi John;
| Now were at 110%. Thanks for sending the one finished board as I requested. Thanks for thinking of the countersink,the screws and the wood plugs. Installation was |
| | fast and easy.I want to take this time to compliment you on great service and following through. Everything is always alright when things go right, but the true measure of a man is when things don't go right and they are corrected.
Thanks again on a job well done. I will definitely recommend you anytime. Yours Truly, Ron Capone Flushing, New York
 | | John
| The benches arrived today and in good condition. They were assembled this evening |
| | and they look great. My wife just flipped over hers- -excellent job. It looks great and serves the purpose I bought it for- -working with my guns and ammo. Thanks for a quality product made in the U.S.A.

 | | Hey John,
| Your bench arrived yesterday. It looks great in my new shop and certainly is the |
| | centerpiece. Please know that I'll enjoy many years of using this beautiful tool.. Please feel free to share the pictures. I'll call next time we're visiting Charleston. I hope you'll do the same when visiting the DC area. (See Henry's Photo on the right!) (10/18/08) Henry Houston Virginia
Bench looks great!!!! Thank you very much for a job well done. Assembly was a breeze |
| | with your online instructions. The finish looks so good I find myself gently placing my tools on it as to not put the FIRST scratch in! LOL

 | | John,
| The workbench was delivered yesterday and I couldn't be more pleased. I fixed minor |
| | damage to the shelf that was generated during handling in transit, and assembled the bench yesterday, the day it arrived. I want you to know the bench is everything I hoped it would be, and dealing with you and yours has been a real pleasure.
Your willingness to get those aircraft carved into the bench, and the beautiful results were both a real treat to me.
Thanks for your friendly, responsive service, and first class workmanship. In fact, I'd like to order one more of exactly the same workbench for delivery to our home in Florida!

I have to tell you,the Little John that you built was excellent. You are second to none , and a Master Craftsman. I'm very proud of this,my friends are jealous! And last, during these times I'm very grateful this was made In AMERICA. G. B. Keller Vancouver, WA
 | | I love the bench; it's a rock. In fact I'm sitting at it right now as I type this. | | | Assembly was a breeze; I like your instruction labels - much better than a cryptic instruction sheet. In addition, everything you claimed on your website was true: Product quality, delivery, service, the whole package. I've already received compliments on the bench and I'm sure it's only a matter of time before someone I know decides to order one of their own.I was looking around stores and the internet for weeks trying to find the right solution for my new office and, when I saw your website I was pretty confident I found it. Now that I have it I'm convinced and I congratulate myself for a great decision and you for a great product.

Thanks!

 | | It is great to deal with the actual person who is building the workbench, not just | | | a computer or a service. John was very helpful and genuinely nice to deal with.
| C. Cox ~ Mill Valley, CA
 | | Fantastic deal and amazing bench. Friendly and helpful as well.
| N. Patel ~ Encinitas CA
 | | The bench was a gift for my wife who needed her own bench for flower | | | arrangements. She loved it. It was easy to assemble and is quality made. The personal touch (Inscription) meant a lot, as well. The delivery by UPS, by way of consignment to Over Nite, worked out well. Thanks for your attention

 | | John, I received my workbench, assembled it and installed it in my Garage. I'm | | | very happy with it - especially the beautiful finish.
| Thanks for a great product! Vince Colangelo CT
 | | Hello John,
| The entire order finally arrived yesterday, and assembly this morning went smooth. |
| | The benches look great! And you were right, we are very pleased. The workmanship is wonderful, and your secure packing was also fabulous. I was upset DHL took so long to get all the pieces to me, separating 3 boxes from the 2 table tops, and delivering them 4 days later, but I give them credit for not trashing the pieces. Too many other "freight" companies have little regard for items they move.
In any case, I am thrilled with the tables! E. Myles - Festus, MO
 | | Awesome Craftsmanship. This guy knows how to build a workbench. I love it.... | | | +++
