I searched online for a solid oak medicine cabinet. There were several sellers who operated stores where they sold such cabinets that they had made. The ones made by Mr. Long captured my attention. There was a purity of design in them, which let the beauty of the wood do the speaking vs. a lot of carving or other embellishments. When I contacted Mr. Long, he was extremely responsive, asking all the right questions about the size of the space I had, my preferences, the color of stain I wanted, the color and style of cabinet hardware I wanted, etc. We exchanged many emails, most accompanied by drawings with design ideas or photos of previous cabinets he'd made for others. The distance between New York City and Tennessee mattered not. When my cabinet arrived, it was packed very professionally and suffered not a scratch in shipping. I tore open the cardboard, eager to see my ideas wrought in oak. And I was astounded by the sheer beauty of the cabinet. You look at it, you see the work of a true master in woodworking. I will never have to buy another medicine cabinet, not in this lifetime. This one will last and last, unlike the particle-board junk you can buy at the home improvement centers. I cannot recommend Mr. Long enough for cabinetry.
Description of Work: I found Dave Long by looking for a solid oak medicine cabinet online. I found a real winner in Mr. Long. He and I designed a combination medicine cabinet/storage cabinet for the bathroom in my new co-op apartment, by exchanging emails and attached drawings. The 46" wide, 8" deep, and 31" high oak cabinet, custom-built for me, was only about $400, costing about $100 to ship from Tennessee. The workmanship was impeccable. He had matched the grain on the recessed panels, the mitered joints were flawless, the beveled mirror gorgeous, the hardware installed perfectly. The stain and polyurethane finish was perfect. I could not be happier with this gorgeous cabinet, which draws raves from anyone viewing it. It is truly an heirloom piece. Mr. Long also produces tables and other pieces, to your specification. If you look on websites you will find a small oak medicine cabinet for about $600, much smaller than the cabinet Mr. Long built for me. As far as I can see, it's a much better deal to have Mr. Long build you a custom cabinet and then pay shipping than to pay inflated local prices and get much less for your money.
