Hi

Wondering about buying a new paddle.  Like the look of the wooden handled ones, but most important consideration is the quality of the graphite.

Anyone got any recommendations??

Thanks

Off mandrel have some nice looking paddles with heat resistant foam handles that I've been eyeing up for a while. I think they do a wooden handled one to but won't swear to it!

I have bought some bead rollers and have been using the other side as a paddle, two tools in one

My favourite came from here, the long narrow one. It is nice quality graphite.
