There's the John Boos Cucina Classico, but not sure it'll be sleek looking enough to work with my modern (series 7 knockoff) bar stools up to. I also really dig the DWR version's casters... Does anyone know of a company that'll do custom for cheap that they know and trust? Located in LA is preferable, but willing to ship (as long as it's not prohibitively expensive.)

You could try any local kitchen cabinet shop and ask if they've worked with stainless. Tue Nov 20 04:37:34 -0800 2007 3141258 101367 BigSteve
