What if I want a tune/song title that is not listed on your tune list?

 If you would prefer a title that is not on our tune list, we are happy to check on the title’s cost, availability and whether the license (if required) has been obtained by our supplier.  For a fee we can create a custom music movement to an unlicensed musical arrangement you provide. This requires you to provide sheet music for a minimum of eight bars of the tune.

I have an image/object I would like carved into a custom lid. Can you let me know if it can be done and what it will look like before I place an order?

 Please email us a digital picture of the image and we can see if we are able to produce an electronic model image for you.

Custom lid pricing would quoted on an individual basis.

Are you products safe and non-toxic?

We use only environmentally friendly non-toxic American brand finishes which are applied by hand. We never spray on finishes. We eliminate waste and use recycled products whenever possible (i.e. for packaging, office supplies, etc.). We make it a priority to rescue wood that might otherwise end up in a wood chipper. Anywhere we can use wood that would be too small for large furniture construction to build our smaller products we do so. Black Forest Woodworks is committed to maintaining an environmentally friendly workshop.
