In Response To: Paddle: Cedar Greenland Paddle Protection (Richard Johnson)

I just completed my first cedar paddle (not Greenland type though) out of cedar. I epoxy coated it then put two coats of varnish. I don't believe the epoxy did anything useful. Since cedar is a soft wood there is no way to avoid minor dings and scratches so I am just going to live with it. After all, it's not a display piece.
