Recommendation for a custom lighting canopy mfg?

[ksliech]

I've been working on a design for a chain-hung lighting canopy for my 24" cube. Two Kessil A360xe's will live inside, and later, some supplemental lights. I have no problem doing the design but do not have the woodworking chops to actually make the thing. Has anyone worked with a good company that would build (and maybe paint) a custom lighting canopy to their specs?

If its going to be primarily wood, any good local carpenter can make it for you. No need for an aquarium-specific company who would likely charge you a premium. I would look around google for local furniture builders or even just an independent all-purpose carpenter.

I agree with formulator.

Most seem like they just do big jobs but I should just reach out anyway. Actually just found these guys: https://www.midwestcustomaquariums.com/cabinetry/wood-aquarium-cabinetry/

Not local but folks here have had good luck with them.
