Source for carbon fiber shafts?
« on: October 16, 2008, 04:02:37 PM »
Time to start building some paddles again. I'll mostly be building all wood but i thought I might try a couple hybrids if I can get some carbon fiber shafts. Anyone know of a source?

http://www.zre.com/catalog/paddlepartsshafts-c-23_33.html?osCsid=2e56d8d2e2125523ab328c1b5eedb890 and you know they will work for your intended purpose.  I've just been too short of time and afraid of what the shipping would be to even inquire but they are right down the street from you . . .

Another option would be http://www.campmor.com/outdoor/gear/Product___73126 - no one says you have to make a kayak paddle with this . . .  And you would have a nice travel weapon when you were done.

Please post pictures of the building and final product.

Thanks - David
