I think there is more to it than just cutting down a regular paddle the blade has to be long and thin
but you can just google shape & sizing, a buddy made one from a piece of wood he beachcombedLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

yeah it's definitely possible. I would recommend using a wood that is less dense; the heavier the blade, the more fatiguing it is to paddle with
