<Does anyone know of someone that makes Greenland paddles to your measurements?>

Another option, Steve --- although, from Arkansas, I'm not sure how viable it would be for you --- is to take a clinic with George Ellis; he typically cuts a blank per your anthropometric data and delivers it to the clinic site for your further hacking and hewing.  It really doesn't take a lot of equipment or space to craft a paddle, especially if you can start at the blank part.  Take a look for his data in the archives --- his method is the easiest and least tool-intensive, and his methods (after building about ten his way, I think it's safe to say) are solid.
