In Response To: Paddle: Adding hardwood tips (Stephen Troy)

Titebond will work just fine but it does require it be clamped. I have pipe clamps so I just screw a couple together to get the length I need. I never use dowels or splines and only broke one tip but it wood broke, not the glue joint.

If you don't have a way to clamp it tight, I would use epoxy, it fills gaps better.
