Rik, I’m sorry I have been waiting to get some pictures to send to you and I wanted everything to be complete. I love the foot rails and everyone that has seen them loves them as well. I will be sending you photos in the next couple of weeks. My wife and I are satisfied beyond belief and thank you so much for a perfect project.

bulletMornin’ Rik,
I can’t believe you beat me to it!  Just yesterday we received photos and have been busy preparing to put our house on the market here in CT...so was going to em you this weekend.
In short...it looks absolutely awesome!!!!!
Have attached a couple of photos for you to see for yourself.  But once the stair treads are complete, will send you some nicer ones.  Johnny was able to join the pieces and wrap them so that the entire rail looks continuous...so we’re thrilled.  But it could never have been accomplished without your fabulous rope ends!
Thanks so much!

Rik:
 
Not happy with it . . . thrilled with it.  The wife wasn't happy with me spending that amount of money right now, and so she's saying that she doesn't like it (but everybody else says they love it's looks). So I think it's just a matter of time before she tells me to order a rail for her side of the desk.
 
Also, talk about packing.!!  Your packing could have taken a direct hit from a tank shell and survived unscathed.
 
Your work is high quality and beautiful .  Thank you kindly.

bulletHi Rik - I received the footrail and it was installed yesterday.  It's looks fantastic and I couldn't be happier with the quality of your craftmanship.  It was the final touch to my bar which gave it a unique look.  I will take a few photo's and send to you next week.  Thanks again.  Best regards, Mike.

Rik –

 We did receive the rail and it is just gorgeous!!!!  It fits perfectly and we could not be happier.  I am heading down next week and will take pictures for you.  We just love it and look forward to opening that house up in the spring so that we can “belly up to the bar” and have such a beautiful place to rest out feet.  Thank you once again.  You are a true artist!

Rik,

 it looks wonderful and the club was very satisfied.  Our superintendent installed the bar rail and said that once he did one section, it took him about 1-1/2 hours to complete installation.  He said it was no problem at all.

Rik,
 
The foot rails and brackets look just awesome! When I got back home and went to the restaurant all the workers were commenting about them.
 
Thanks so much for the gift as well, I'm thinkin' a nice fat stogie sitting in there once this job is finished.
 
I'll make sure to get you photos once the foot rails get installed.
 
The restaurateur liked the brackets so much that we are going to order more for the serving granite connected to the kitchen!
 
I need (7) 7"x7" brackets. They need to be exactly like the others ones that we have for the bar, but just a bit smaller. The ones for the bar measured out at 9"x9".
 
 
Thanks again,

bulletHi Rik - Attached is a pic of the footrail.  Don't think the pic came out to good.  I see if Russell took some better high def pictures.  I'll send another one as well.  I get lots of compliments on the footrail.  It really is a unique piece that makes a bold statement.  Best regards, Mike
bulletRIk,  I received your foot rest todayon time as notified. It was obvious to me that you take great pride in your craftsmanship. The product was flawless and built perfectly to specifications. I was able to complete installation within 10 minutes after removing it from its carefully built protective crate. The cleaning kit and laminated maintenance  instructions were a added bonus. I will recommend your product on any bars we build in the future. We hold a high standard of quality in our business and it's nice to find someone else who does so themselves. I will send you some photos of the finished bar you may use them on your site if you wish to.

bullet Hello Rik,

I thought it looked great and was absolutely a perfect fit for our bar and the room that it is in.  The size was perfect and it has a very heavy and solid feel to it.  The custom brackets are great as well and the attachments to the bar hit in exactly the right spot.  And best of all it is unique, not another one like it for miles and miles.  Thank you and I wouldn't be surprised if you get some referrals from this foot rail.  I'll keep you updated on feedback from my wife and friends.  Neil

bulletRik,

I just received your Fireplace screen. It is beautiful! You are a true craftsman. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and family. Everything you did was professionally done, from the way you packaged the components, the crating of the Fire screen, the care instructions etc.  I was so excited when I got it all set-up, I wanted to do a dance. I showed it to a few of my friends that appreciate quality as I do and were floored by the workmanship and detail.

 

Thank you once again for the beautiful piece. It will be put to good use.

If you ever need a reference for a potential client, I will be happy to give one for you.

 

Happy Holidays and Regards,

If you don’t have brochures, I can attach your card to a couple printouts from your website showing products. Happy to do it!

not realize it would cover about two inches of the opening on all sides and
the top of the opening really needed to be covered! Everybody who has seen
it rants and raves about it. I will happily promote you and your company to

I visited your web site and all I can say is “COOL”.  What you offer is perfect for a new Great Room we have under remodel as we speak.  We have a wet bar in the remodel and installing a wood flooring etc.  We cannot find a bar foot rail locally, and I have surfed the Web this morning.  I have found several sources, but what you offer is in line with some special things we are doing with our remodel.

bulletHi Rik,

Glad you emailed.  Yes, all went fine in the end.  Sorry it was such a hassle for you, as well.  But the shipping woes were most definitely worth it because we absolutely adore the rail!  It really complements our space and adds such a unique touch.  We consider a piece of art and are proud to have it!  Friends have already raved about it and I proudly tell them that I installed it myself.  In the process of installing and fitting together the pieces, I could see what craftmanship you have and what care you take in building this piece.  So thank you a million times over!   I am such a terrible procrastinator I have only now gotten around to taking a photo of it to show you (see attached).  Sorry for the delay in getting back to you and thanks again!

I will take some after we get moved in and it is much cleaner. Thanks so much.
