Beautiful work,a real craftsman.
What wood do you use for the main hull planking?
Lime or linden tree?

Beautiful work,a real craftsman.
What wood do you use for the main hull planking?
Lime or linden tree?

Linden wood, because it takes a pretty yellow color when exposed at sunlight, and is easy to curve without braking
