The first board for the rowers is laid. It is made of maple, and the wooden nails are made of ash.

Well, sometimes it gets a little dusty... 😀

Thanks everyone for the views and comments. I definitely learned new things from them. The model is of a ship of significant importance in the evolution of shipbuilding, that's why I chose it. I'm glad my humble project has sparked interest...

I work in short periods. My workshop is located in a different place from where I live. At my parents' place. That's why I try to have everything ready when I go there. And I try to do my best in a short time. Unfortunately my next visit to the workshop will be in two weeks... 😒

Hello, I want to introduce you my new project. This is an ancient Dorian ship. In the thick books it is determined from 3300 BC. I have a plan from a modeling magazine from 1983, a page from the book "The Ship" аnd some modern 3D pictures.
