Book excerpt: Making a Bent Shaft Laminated Canoe Paddle is all about the very enjoyable process of making your own paddle. Laminating is all about using epoxy to join weak wood strips into amazingly strong paddle shafts and blades. This book walks the reader through the setup, materials, tools, and the workflow to turn out your own wood canoe paddles. Hand tools, especially a spokeshave, but also a block plane and scrapers allow for even the beginning woodworker to turn out a work of beauty that is every bit as functional as it is art worthy. It's a great feeling to go paddling, it's even better when you are using one of your very own hand made paddles! Please note - Other than black and white photos, this black and white version is the exact same as the full color version.
