Gold and silver leafing? Yup we can do that too!

This adds that extra special touch that you just can’t get with paint…plus simply painting a 2 hour 3D carve seems very wrong 😂

Want to add gold and/or silver leafing to your project? Let us know when you reach out, and we’ll share options for incorporating it!

As Owen Wilson would say “wowwwww”

3D carved insignias really do add that WOW factor to any piece.

Big or small we can 3D carve just about any insignia or rank!

What would you like to see as a 3D carve?

Looking for different options? Well we have them!

While we didn’t reinvent the paddle we did make it own. All of our paddles start as raw wood and get cut by us in our shop. From there we engrave and seal each paddle giving it that beautiful finish. We have handfuls of colors and wrap designs so you can take a basic paddle and really make it your own. All engravings and standard wraps are included in the price of the paddle. *Fancier wraps such as the Stars and Stripes are an extra cost.

We are SO proud of these and can’t express just how over the moon we are that our paddles are going out to members that will have them as mementos of their career forever.

Have a paddle from us? We’d love to see some Fine Grit in the wild so drop your pics in the comments.

Orders are still open for individual and unit paddles. Head to our website to submit a request for a quote.

When we say custom we mean it.

This sign is a perfect example of that. None of these colors were straight out of the bottle. Each one was mixed and color matched to the logo…pretty perfectly if I do say so myself ☺️

The carve itself was done several times because we just weren’t happy with how it looked. We wanted it to pop so a lot of editing and several carves later we got that dimension we were looking for.

We put A LOT into each and every product we send out. That’s why sometimes they take a little longer than expected because nothing is just straight off a shelf. We see something along the making process that we think would make it better and we do it.

I really hope the love and attention to detail can be seen in each and every product you get from us ♥️

Does your unit need a new sign? Cool logos get priority 😉

Hehe just kidding. How CUTE are these little mini paddle ornaments though 👀

We try and come up with a new ornament for the unit Christmas party each year and these cuties were from 2024.

Would you like to see these or other ornaments offered in the future?
