how to make a wooden ping pong paddle

just recently i have received a ping pong table as a graduation present for graduating from the 8th grade.

after playing a little bit of ping pong i decided "what if i made a ping pong paddle?" and well i did.

and unlike my other instructable i made this while i was doing it. my other instructable i made before hand causing it to be a little bit hard to explain BUT ANYWAY.

have u ever wanted to make a ping pong paddle? well now you will find out how to.
