I decided to mess about and make myself a mash paddle:

Still a little rough, but it'll do nicely methinks.

I wrote measurements on mine with that intention, but they're wearing off

Don’t mind me, I was “only joking”. I shouldn’t covet my neighbours mash paddle any way.

What kind of wood is that by the way? It looks like maybe ash or maple, or something really nice.

Enjoy brewing with it and don’t give it another thought. I’ll be OK. I got a new $6 solid plastic mash paddle in the mail today. :(

I made it out of a 1" x 4" x 48" piece of maple from Central. I drew the outline, cut it with a jigsaw, and sanded all edges with an orbital sander

Looks great. I made mine X number of years ago out of round stock from Kents, drilled out holes and used pegs to hold it together. Only one side exists right now.
Think this time I'll do one similar to yours.

thanks again,

I forgot to mention that the circles were cut with a hole saw. Much easier than a jigsaw for that
