Very very well ! Paul designed and built a beautiful wedding trunk in the old Norwegian style. He added meaningful designs and dates for us which made it truly personal. In this trunk we have kept all the places that have been meaningful to us, mementos of special interest. We continue to add to it which is fun. He has fascinating stories and history besides his obvious talent with wood working. His many awards as a wood carver. Todd Pasche with Carven Critters added a spectacular carved front to the trunk as well. They worked well together and we could not be happier.

The quality of his work is excellent. I would definitely get a bid beforehand. He was a bit more expensive than we anticipated. The communication probably from both the sides was not real good. We thought that we told him one thing and he thought we said something else. So it didn?t come out exactly the way we wanted it to, but whatever was done came out very well. It didn?t quite turn out the way we anticipated. He has a business of custom cabinets. He added some pieces that we weren?t quite anticipating. We got to know him because he had done some cabinet work for a friend of ours and we then called him.
