colonial ship builder

Dear Diary

 

Today at work we built the best ship ever it is perfect it has more than one thousand parts. First we made a drawing or a scale.Then  we built the keel,the keel is like the back bone of the ship. After that we had to make ribs,the ribs have to be perfectly shaped to make the hull of the ship.Next we had to cover the ribs with planks.Sense  we found spaces in between the wood it was filled with caulk,caulk is made by a tar and oakum,and oakum is a rupy fiber from oak trees.Now after that we covered the bottom of the ship with copper.It took a year to build.
