Hand Crafting A Northwoods Paddle
Create the traditional paddle used by Northwoods travelers for hundreds of years. In this course, a North House classic, you learn about wood selection and wood grain considerations as well as paddle sizing and the theory of shape as applied to handles, shafts and blades. You may choose from a variety of different classic paddle designs and you leave the course with a custom-designed paddle constructed with simple hand tools, including a traditional spokeshave and blockplane.
