“My husband and I approached Schwa Custom Woodworking because we wanted to add a custom built island to our kitchen.  Josh helped us out tremendously by coming to our house and discussing options for size and color based on our kitchen layout.  The result was breathtaking.  Not only was the island made in a timely fashion, but it is clearly built to last.  One thing we really liked was the way Josh incorporated unique pieces of wood from his own backyard for the handles.  He was also able to use the color tones found in our kitchen cabinets to match the island doors. We would recommend Schwa Custom Woodworking to people who want a one of a kind piece of functional art made by a skilled craftsman in the heart of Vermont.  Thank you, Josh! “

“I commissioned Josh Townsend, of Schwa Custom Woodworking to build me a conference table for my office and business.  We discussed size, material to be used, and style of the table.  Over a course of several meetings, Josh suggested a table smaller than I was originally asking for, and out of a type of wood we did not originally discuss.

And, he was absolutely right!  The table he suggested was five feet by eight feet, made out of walnut.  Several times during it’s construction, Josh checked in with me during important stages.  He kept me informed and sent me pictures of the process throughout the project.  I could not have asked for a better experience on a custom woodworking project!

Schwa Custom Woodworking delivered on time, on budget, and the table is absolutely stunning. “
