To build from scratch will give you what you want, but cost could easily exceed the mass produced 'almost there' item. What are you looking for; do you have a design you can send me?
a. I can do basic carpentry (and re-finishing if needed). I have to see design to quote.
b. For more exotic materials, I have a friend who does display & custom furniture for museums.
I did a search but couldn't find anything recent. Looking to have a bookcase headboard built for my daughter. Found one she likes on rhteen but it is 4k, she doesn't like the finish, and wants some slight tweaks to the design.
I think I need someone localish as it will be pretty big! Any ideas?
