Welcome to Mark's Custom Kits
Mark's
Custom Kits has just recently celebrated our 33rd year in business, and I would
personally like to openly thank each and every client we've had in the 30+ years,
that has allowed me to do what I have loved to do since Day 1 in 1989. While
I've gotten away from car kits and add-ons, our work has taken us from theme
parks, to cruise lines, to hotels, to museums, and if it wasn't for your trust
in our business, and our firm belief in doing the best we possibly can since
that first day, I still wouldn't be doing this craft. It has allowed me to meet
many interesting clients, meet and sometimes hire skilled craftsmen and
craftswomen, travel to places that I would not have normally gone, and witness
some of the best ideas and projects from behind the magical curtain. I
personally promise to keep doing the top notch work we've been doing all these
years, and with continued blessings, I will be able to continue to do my passion
for many years to come. To each and every one of you who have hired us, Thank
You !!!! Your trust has not gone unnoticed and will always be
respected !!

WSo, where do you go
when you need to have fake bamboo panels for a project, and no one has them
because they don't exist? Why you make them, of course!
Its
not that simple because of the fact that bamboo matting is long strips of bamboo
straps, intertwined into itself and it creates an uneven surface. So creating a
new mold is time consuming and hair pulling to get it to lay down and act
properly before the mold is completed. Once the mold is done, you can make both
single-sidled panels and/or double sided panels by making 2 panels and attaching
them to each other. And once fabricated, you can theme paint and highlight to
whatever the paint scheme needs to be. So now we have molds to make fiberglass
faux panels for any client that may need them! Tiki hut anyone ?

Back in October
of 2015, the schools mascot, the reading bear, which has been an icon for
many years, got vandalized by two people who never got caught. Upon seeing the
damage, I immediately contacted the Osceola School District and offered up our
services for free to repair and bring life back to the iconic bear. First time
students have been having their picture taken in front of the statue for over 16
years, and I couldn't let the actions of a few, change the way new students
started their journey into the future. So me and my team started the task of
bringing back shape and look, to the schools lasting mascot....
It was our
pleasure to do the work, and administration, teachers, students and parents
alike, all gathered around for the public unveiling of the newly reborn bear.
Kissimmee Elementary, thank you for the opportunity to allow us to help you in
this time of need...
