One dreams of the sea, and of high adventure, when looking at these little well-rigged ships on a mantle.....

There is much to learn by building models.

Building models can be a good learning experience on ship design and rigging.  On this page are links to the build logs of my model ships, a steam engine, and a book nook.  Researching these projects prior and during the project is fun as well.  I am an early riser, and this is a great quiet hobby to enjoy that can be worked on without waking anyone up.  Enjoy!
