- This short film was made by our Ship's Co Volunteer, Jon Seal. In the film, you get to meet some of the Shipwrights and Production Crew volunteers converting oak into planks. In the first few minutes, you will see Simon Charlesworth notching a rough section of oak ready to remove the waste followed by John Orr working on a plank that is further along the production line. Later Laurie Walker (Assistant Shipwright) explains how we will attach the first planks to the keel.

Spectacular project, and so glad to be given a peek into the process!
Glad to still be following the project years later. The ~6 month setback was disheartening but such is life.
Interesting how modern boat building influences reconstruction efforts. Working on the Hardraade ship in Norway we borrow from contemporary Norlands boat building, here in this film it seems that traditional wooden boat building techniques such as we see the Samson boat company employing. We should co-operate, compare notes and hold a symposium at some point. Thanks very much for putting all the effort into making this film all the best, Lucas (volunteer building a viking ship).
Wonderful and totally amazing. The research done and the work being done to rebuild is amazing. Using the Outline that was found at Sutton Hoo. It will be outstanding. I have seen it twice so far when visiting Suffolk. Well worth the time and contribute to the project. For those of us no longer living in England or Suffolk! please keep this updated. Thank you.
Thank you for the update on this remarkable project. I continue to be amazed by the skills and dedication of the people involved, including those of the videographer. Much respect.
Thank you very much! It is lovely that so many people are following the project, and we agree that Jon is capturing things perfectly.
And patience.
My gosh, this is amazing. I am only building a Tenor Ukelele which compared to this endeavor is not even a project.
That sounds incredibly skilful too, I hope it is going well.
Hi there I thoroughly enjoyed this video, I am a blacksmith based in Cheshire and would love to have some involvement with this project. Is it possible I could forge any items. I focus mainly on axes but have made various other hand tools.
Can we sponsor a rivet if we’re in the US? I’m from Dorset and I have a good friend there besides family who perhaps could buy one in my name if not.
Hi, we send sponsor packs all over the world. If you visit our website www.saxonship.org you can select your rivet and make your payment. It’s lovely to have so many people involved in this way 😃
What happens to all the waste product?
Very good question thank you, we turn the larger offcuts into gifts and souvenirs as part of our fundraising, the chippings go to different rewilding projects for reinstating paths, and we use some of the chippings to mulch the 400 oak saplings that we planted in the spring, other chippings are used at a local horse yard and others are used by gardeners, the bark has been going to a local school for bug houses and bird boxes. The bowls, carvings, pens, key rings, salad servers and many other wood craft products are all branded with our name and sell like hotcakes! We are very grateful to our team of volunteers who ensure that every last piece of timber is used.
