Thanks for your submission. I think it is a great looking logo, however it is too different than the logo branding we already have with our existing design. I would like to see something based around our current logo. I am happy with my logo layout, I just need something less detailed that I can use for all types of advertising (screen prinitng, embroidery, etc.)

Still anxious to see submisions from additional designers.

This is a great design idea, definatly headed in the direction that I had in mind. I just have a couple of changes. Can the direction of the plane be reversed? Our exisitng logo has the plane in that direction and we would like to keep it similar if possilbe. Your version appears that it is cut off at the bottom, can the company name be boxed in somehow?

offbeat- thanks for making the requested changes. I think I like the original version better. Could we reverse the hand plane in the original and add .com to the end off the Custom Cabinetry portion of the logo?

thanks for your time

Looks good! Sorry, to be a pain, but could the .com be in caps and increase the font size of Custom Cabintery.com to extend out beyond Sylvester?
