Custom Build Path
Select the instrument, wood tier, handle treatment, body options, finish direction, and engraving path. The Build Total is paid through Shopify checkout before the order moves into review and production planning.
Core Instruments
These are the core working forms inside the Boutique: full paddles, slim paddles, square consequence canes, and round course correction canes.
From $65
Broad presence, higher visual authority, and the strongest paddle profile in the standard line.
From $55
Faster handling, narrower profile, and a cleaner entry point into paddle work.
From $85
Square-profile cane work with a focused face, clean geometry, and direct response.
From $85
Round cane profile with lighter correction character, controlled bite, and disciplined restraint.
Material Tiers
Foundation is the entry point, not a lesser build. Higher tiers change species, figure, density, and final Build Total.
Pine and Poplar. Clean, controlled, accessible, and built to the same shop standard.
House + $25Reliable hardwood upgrades selected for balance, finish, and response.
Signature + $50Stronger figure, elevated character, and more distinctive visual presence.
Reserve + $75Limited, exotic, or harder-source species released under controlled availability.
Release Types
Available Work belongs to the finished-record path. Bench Cuts are Foundation releases for direct access without custom scope, archive status, or public numbering.
Available Work
One-of-one discipline tools released for direct purchase when the work is complete and ready to ship.
Bench Cuts
Bench Cuts are controlled Foundation releases. They do not receive Legacy Numbers, public release codes, or Ledger entries.
SSB Standard
The standard remains intact without making the first visit feel like an initiation process.
Custom builds submit the full Build Total through checkout. No deposit language appears on the public commission path.
Finished pieces and ready releases are inspected before they are presented as available work.
Terms, ownership expectations, safe handling, and care remain part of the purchase environment.
Legacy Numbers are reserved for custom commissions and one-of-one finished releases entered into the SSB record.
The Ledger
The Ledger is proof of completed work: material, shape, finish, commission direction, and archive presence. It is reference and record, not direct-purchase inventory.
Provisions
Finish oils, Strike Balm, tool care, and ownership provisions for pieces meant to be handled, maintained, and kept.
Next Step
Shop released one-of-one tools, commission a custom build, or study completed work before choosing direction.
