2P4: Two part paddle practice piece





















Plan to throw one away.

This is the prototype two part paddle. Square section pine epoxied to an 18mm board about a foot long. Also pleased because gluing the shaft to the blade seems to work just fine and is considerably cheaper than carving from a single piece.

Then used the prototype to make sure that I could successfully shape a blade according to the method in the paddles book.

It seems I can.
