I am trying to build greenland style paddles for my wife and I.&nbsp; I have picked out two woods, White cedar and Ash.&nbsp;&nbsp; Has anyone out there had experience with these woods and if so what are the drawbacks of them.&nbsp;&nbsp; The cedar would be nice and light for my wife, and the ash would be stronger for me to use.&nbsp; Thanks in advance.
