Hillary - Father's Day Flight

🍻 Hillary – Flight Deck Beer Sampler

When my daughter Hillary needed a unique gift for her boyfriend’s dad, she wasn’t sure where to start. But I’d just begun experimenting with beer flight designs on my new CNC machine—and that lit the path.

We crafted a custom beer flight paddle from maple, engraved with “Dave’s FLIGHT DECK” and accented with illustrations of taps and beer mugs. The board holds six 5oz mason jar tasting glasses, each set into carved recesses for a secure, balanced feel. Chalkboard panels were added to the edges for easy labeling—so each pour could be named, tested, and discussed.

It was built for a beer lover, but this wasn’t just barware. It was the first CNC-aligned gift to come out of my shop, where curiosity met craftsmanship—and turned into something unexpectedly fun.

Hillary has been a valued repeat customer here at 3DW. I love making custom products for her. She has also commissioned a puzzle shaped charcuterie board as a gift for her boyfriend's sister, and a custom leash holder. 

Material: Maple with engraved lettering and illustrations, fitted to six 5oz mason jar glasses and chalkboard detail.
