In Response To: paddle tip protection (passinthru)
: I would like to glass the tip (about 2 inches or so) of the greenland style
: paddle I am making. Any tips on getting a clean, sharp edge where the
: glass ends on the paddle face. I was thinking of using masking tape where
: the cloth stops but figured that the resin will soak right thru.
What I do is make the glass about an inch wider than the area you want to reinforce. Then sand this edge down to feather it out. A smooth feathered edge is difficult to see (assuming the rest of the paddle is coated with the same resin).
