Building the sidewheel steamer Heroine

Nick writes in regarding our “Industrial Archeology” post – “Glenn Grieco is building a model of the sidewheel steamer Heroine as part of his work in the Ship Model Shop at the Nautical Archaeology Program at the U of Texas. Some good pictures of the CNC milling and CAD models…He is working with the remains of recovered ships, historical sources, etc, modelling them in Autocad, then making the models – it is possibly one of the coolest jobs ever.”
