"Dowling A Little Jig"

We used a dowel jig to impregnate the paddle blade with three holes a half inch deep and a quarter inch in diameter to prepare for Wenge wood tip attachment. We used a handrill with a drill bit for wood to make the incision.lol

In the three holes drilled on the blade ends we inserted dowel centers so as to mark the hole placements (in the tip to be added) so that the dowels in the blade would line up perfectly with the holes in the tip. They did toO!

Of course we had to do a little jiggin' to get the holes in the tips.
