Building a 12-inch-long model of an 18th-century longboat gives students a hands-on connection to history. In this five-day class, they will start with a kit that looks like little more than strips of wood and sheets of thin plywood. By learning a few basic techniques, students will leave with a completed model and the skills to tackle larger, more challenging projects. Drawing on his experience building many models, Daryl will also guide students toward future projects.
