Here’s the ship building workshop at the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde, Denmark. The work of the boatyard at the museum is carried out so that the public can observe it; the museum builds clinker-built vessels for other museums, for research purposes, and for private commissions. I could spend days wandering around this place. The smell of sawdust and the beautiful curves of the wood are wonderful to me.
