Custom work · case by case

Built around a real use case, not a product catalog.

I am open to occasional one-off gear inquiries when the problem fits my materials, methods, schedule, and appetite for experimentation. Start with the environment and failure mode; the design comes later.

  • No automatic checkout or acceptance.
  • Scope, materials, timing, and price are discussed first.
  • Prototype uncertainty stays visible rather than being marketed away.
