working on it when the weather was bad or I wanted a break from the kayak.
The final stage sanding with some 200 grit paper.
And then finally some Tung-oil to seal the surface, I am pretty
happy with it.
Next up Oiling the frame..

Paddle finished
I have really kept up with the paddle progress but I have been
working on it when the weather was bad or I wanted a break from the kayak.
The final stage sanding with some 200 grit paper.
And then finally some Tung-oil to seal the surface, I am pretty
happy with it.

Hi Rob, looks good your paddle. Did you make it of pine and what weight did the paddle end up at?
ReplyDeleteI made my pagaj of pine and at first it was very heavy (more than 1.5 kg), so I planed it until I didn't dare to plane it any more and the weight came down to about 1.2 kg...but I've heard of paddles that is at about 7-800 gr...I wonder how those guys do...?
