See update on progress of Rattlesnake Model Shipways by jazzdc. This represents 2 years of work. This is my first wooden ship. I have only finished one other ship which was the plastic Golden Hind. I have another post with the first year's work of the Rattlesnake. I appreciate the help I have received from other modelers of varying skill at this site. Seeing photos of other work has helped me tremendously and I hope these photos 

are useful to another modeler; particularly a novice like myself.

Nice progress!  Isn’t that a sheet music on the first pic? What kind of music is that? Strange, but I keep some violin pieces near my building desk too )) For me building of wooden ships has much in common with building musical instruments and classical musicianship. However when I go plastic planes/armor I turn on my guitar setup 😉 Keep up building Rattlesnake! Best Regards)

Dmitriy- thanks for your kind comments. That is sheet music of chords and melody for a jazz performer. I only perform part time now, but I performed for 40 years as a professional. I play sax, flute and congas. My wife plays the concert harp. I play jazz with the sax and I accompany my wife on flute for classical performances.

Jazzdc,

Please do not start any more new topics for this build.  Just go down to the bottom of the page and add to it.  Having one build scattered all over the place doesn't help anyone trying to follow your build.
