I put on a thin coat of epoxy with each layer. Do you think that is what made it flexible?

: It should harden up enought to work. When in use the paddle should fill the
: ferrule so it's job then is only holding the two pieces together. Most
: commercially built two piece paddles are glass and not nearly that thick.

: How did you hold the layers together when you built this? It may be fairly
: resin rich and that won't help with it's rigidity.
