How To Make A Canoe Paddle / DIY / Walnut and Maple

Hey Folks 👋
Just a spur of the moment video here on how I built myself a canoe paddle.
Been wanting to do this for years.
Basically just shop scraps from Longbows I've built. Hoping this tutorial will help someone out there.
Thanks for Watching and share if you liked it.

Nice to see someone using powertools to speed up the process. What is the width of your belt sander?
