1/2 model

Woodworking in the lounge is a messy affair
It's been raining a hell of a lot recently so stayed indoors and made a half model of Shemara, taken from the original blue-line drawing. It's only my second go at a half model; it's a complex shape and I have no power tools, so it's a bit rough - particularly at the sheerline. Nevertheless, it's not too bad I think. It's made of Fiji Kauri and finished with boiled linseed oil.






Fiji Kauri is easy to work but is pretty ugly I've found!
