Custom & bulk orders
Most of what I make started as somebody’s oddly specific idea. If you have one — a single keepsake, or forty of them for a banquet — tell me about it below.
I work in laser-engraved wood, acrylic, leather and slate, plus 3D-printed plastic. Practical Possum is a one-person shop in Hamden, Connecticut, so please allow about three weeks for bulk work — longer in October and November, which is banquet and holiday season. Price breaks start at 10 units.
One-off custom piece
A gift, a keepsake, a thing that doesn’t exist yet. Tell me roughly what you’re picturing and I’ll tell you whether I can make it and what it would cost.
Bulk & booster orders
Senior night plaques, section awards, banquet gifts, staff thank-yous. Give me the numbers and the date and I’ll send a quote — purchase orders welcome.

Not only is this item amazing, but so is the shop owner. I ordered the wrong corps to start and he quickly cancelled the order and issued a refund. So my son will be elated by the gift and I am elated by the quality of both the gift and the customer service.

Items are of high quality and shipping was very fast. One of the coasters has some wood grain showing on the edge of the design, but an extra coaster was included. Excellent product!
