Monday and tuesday we worked on the canoe paddle fabrication techniques.
After taking stock of our current wood supply, we started cutting shaft blanks out of cherry sap wood and picking out pretty sections of heart wood for the blades.
Walnut and fir sections are being cut up as well.
This is a paddle made of WRC shaft with MO. hogany handle.
Maple dowels are visible prior to epoxy.
Below is the handle after rough sanding.
