Hardwood Ruler Paddles

Bethie and I have so many wooden toys that normally, the idea of another one is ho-hum at best. Been there, swatted with that, or with something so close to it, she couldn’t tell the difference.

But these narrow hardwood “ruler” paddles look different. Specifically, they look light enough to get used a lot, controllable enough to spank the same spot a lot of times, and heavy/solid enough to cause a lotta-lotta sting.

A genuine old-school oak-hardwood school ruler might be similar, but it’s tough to find one of those that doesn’t have sharp edges or corners, or a metal straight edge, or splinters. (And there’s no good way to hold it that doesn’t eventually make my hand start to hurt a little, he said woefully, expecting pity and sympathy…)

    Greetings,

    I also like tropical hardwoods – like cocobolo – for ruler paddles. I find that dipping the handle in several coats of ‘plasicoat’ rubber makes them easier on the spanker for extended use. The ruler will have less tendency to slip in your hand and greater balance, increasing your accuracy and effectiveness with much less effort.

    Peace,
    Pat

    All I can think of is that it looks like a more solid version of a lefse stick. Since my husband is bound to notice this, it’s only a matter of time before he steals my lefse stick …. not that I’m complaining. :)
