Which eventually lead to the royal navy dominating the world. All started with the Viking longship, Crazy when you think about it like that.

Zzzz, a Norse tool box was found not too long ago. It was intact and full of tools. Most of them were easily recognizable by modern hand tool woodworkers. A lot of that stuff hasn't changed for centuries. Modern tools makers can mass produce these things with greater accuracy but the core tools haven't changed. The main difference between the way we build things today and the medieval times is that we have detailed drawn plans. Medieval builders tended to start with a broad plan but the individual measurements were based off of the previous step. They didn't have rulers or standardized measurements. They would use things like string or story sticks to ensure consistency. So, other than using a few things like modern drills and saws to save time, it looked like they stayed pretty true to the original methods as we understand it. Even at that, it looked like the bit they were using in the drill was forged and not modern. I do wonder just how many ships of this size were built during the Viking era. That is a lot of resources for one ship. The person that had a ship like that built would have to be extremely wealthy.

@michael ryan Think of a Marine in aviation maintenance - they went to recruit training and basic infantry, went to A-school for their rate, and C-school. Not only are they proficient in combat, but also in maintaining aircraft engines. It can be applied to Vikings as we are certainly not the first to come up with this idea. In the military you get your journeyman after four years, or eight thousand hours in your rate/mos, if in a trade applicable rate/mos. USMAP provides a way to translate your experience worked in the military to a journeyman level. It is possible. Plus, Marines have PT outside of work frequently, so their work, PT, and school combined makes them handy. Again, we're not the first to think of this concept, so the idea of the warriors building their ships they use for warfare is a likely possibility. Keep in mind that it was their way of life, and if that's the case, you can become very dedicated to it, just as you are with your journeyman.
@Pieman67115 жыл бұрын
@michael ryan What I'm saying is, it's very possible to train someone in multiple fields of construction/maintenance. Keep in mind that this was their way of life, and had to adapt, so it isn't shooting for the stars to think that they would be proficient in additional crafts. If it's your way of life, you become very motivated, and especially if this is your whole life. They probably had people specifically trained for different jobs, but there's no doubt everyone was similarly trained.

@@SMGJohn Yes, and the largest direct replica built is the Myklebust Ship replica, but they based their ship on sketchy evidence and it may in fact be bigger than the original ship, which is not preserved in the way the Gokstad ship is. They just scaled up the Gokstad and Oseberg ships to 30m and 6m width. That's how big their replica is, which makes it larger than The Sea Stallion from Glendalough, but considerably smaller than Dragon Harald Fairhair. It just baffles me that people wanna spend so much time and energy, use so much traditional workmanship and construction methods, yet make a complete fantasy ship not based on anything known - which is definitely the case with Dragon Harald Fairhair. Maybe they have the Thor Heyerdahl way of thinking; maybe they just wanted to prove that it _could_ have happened, and I guess they did prove that, but that doesn't mean it _did_ happen! The possibility of something is not evidence of something.

Most of the time they would be rowed . And it was not till quite late, that is in the 8 th century that they did have a sail. Not until very late in the Norseman's history, would they have other ships attack them . The important thing was they could travel long distances. And were comparatively safe .

In addition came the production of tar, ropes, sails, colors etc. It took the Viking Ship Museum's boat builders 4 years (2000 - 2004) to build the Sea Stallion. The museum spent the same number of hours, but these were distributed among fewer men and over several years.

Historically accurate perhaps buts its a shame that they didn't use copper nails for longevity. The iron nails will rust out.
@984francis6 жыл бұрын
If they are truly iron (not steel called iron), they will last longer than you might thnk.
@laveturnerjones39545 жыл бұрын
if the nails are wrought iron they will normally even outlast the wood of the draken.

Probably the technical process of obtaining copper is more complicated than iron. That is a question to the official history - Why then the Copper Age was "before" the Iron Age?
@scottmaschino19275 жыл бұрын
The problem isn't with the nails rusting away. It is that the salt water reacts with the iron in the wood, causing the wood to rot out. I forget the technics term.

Klinkebygget has nothing to do with the nails, but is the partial overlap of each board. Still, awesome craftsmanship.

Regarding shipbuilding ---- it seems to me that Great Britain "ruled the waves" for centuries, because of the many "uninvited guests" who came to England from Scandinavia during the earlier period of 793 AD through about 1100 AD.
