I've been feeling a lack of mash paddle lately, and now realize that those crappy plastic spoons are a poor substitute.
I did a little digging on easy homemade paddles and realized that a Child's canoe paddle should fit the bill. I found one cheap at the local sporting goods store.I was a little concerned (probably needlessly) over the varnish, so I sanded down to bare wood before drilling some holes. An 1 1/2" hole saw made for some nice dough-ball breaking goodness. I'm fairly happy with the outcome.
