Happy New Year Albert - hope it is a good one for you and yours - just one question if I may your work is so crisp and clean - I was wondering how you keep the lower levels so clean and stop dust and debris from dropping down whilst working on the current level. Do your tape over the area or ??  Thanks for posting its inspirational work. Cheers Pete

Wonderful carving, Albert! Did you use boxwood for the figurehead? Your whole build is just outstanding!

Hi Albert, I have been away from my shipyard for a while, but am slowly returning to m own Naiad.  Its really neat to see the progress on your Naiad.  The carvings are exceptional as is the fit of each piece.  I true pleasure to see.
