Many old workboats still exist today, though in this age of
fiberglass they are an endangered species. To many, the skill and
craftsmanship of the builders who made them will never be
forgotten. There is a talent that borders on art in creating a
wooden hull from straight pieces of lumber. Steve Rogers keeps the
art alive in miniature, with his beautiful models of these old wood
boats. Through his work he demonstrates an appreciation for the
design and construction of these boats, plus a gentle nostalgia for
the times that they represent. In Model Boat Building Made Simple,
Steve shares his techniques with the reader. A professional artist,
Steve uses drawings and step-by-step color photographs and captions
to make the process easily understood and followed. The materials
needed can be bought at hobby shops, lumber yards, and hardware
stores, and the tools are basic. Steve passes his years of
experience on to the reader in a way that allows even the novice
model builder to complete a fine model-a simple, yet elegant
skiff-incorporating many of the original construction techniques.
