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 face, heavier presence, and the strongest standard paddle profile.
From $55
Narrower profile, faster handling, and sharper response.
From $85
Square-profile cane with a focused face and direct response.
From $85
Round cane with lighter correction character and controlled 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.
Select + $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
Every purchase path stays clear: full pricing, inspection before release, adult consent standards, and recordkeeping where appropriate.
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 Area
Provisions are the care-side of the shop: finish oils, Strike Balm, Road Oil, tool care, and ownership supplies. If a provision is not live yet, the page routes buyers back into active tool paths instead of a dead end.
Next Step
Shop released one-of-one tools, commission a custom build, or study completed work before choosing direction.
