Boat Nautical Shelf

I’m Michael Tyler and for more than 8 years I have been creating Vectric’s Free monthly projects. I’ve made everything from spring wreaths and mantle clocks, to snow sledges and cheeseboards.

Did you know there are already more than 80 projects free for Vectric customers to take advantage of and we’re working on more every month? Each zipped project includes the files relating to the project as well as a comprehensive PDF guide that covers all the key steps help you complete your project - including tips on materials, tooling and finishes. Since 2018 free projects also come with their own video that tells the story of the project from start to finish.

The "Boat Hull Nautical Shelf" is an attractive way to display small treasures for your home or office. The sample’s hull walls, shelves and boat tip were selectively stained. The edge trim and inside back panel were left a natural light color. The instructions included with the file outline the specific method to acomplish this.

The two-tone wood finish on the sample is intended to resemble certain vintage wooden boats from the past. Of course, you may opt for a different type of finish, “shabby-chic” pastel perhaps? In any case, have fun with it and 'sea' what you can create!

Dimensions are approximately: 10.25 " W x 21.5" T x 3.625" D

If you create this project, then it would be great to see a photo of your finished piece over on the Vectric Forum. Alternatively feel free to email us a picture of your finished piece at online@vectric.com.

Which Vectric software do I need to be able to open the free project files?
