Talk:Carvel (boat building)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I propose that we expand this article to incorporate other objects that employ this construction method (e.g., lutes and related instruments). Perhaps the page should be moved to "Carvel (construction method)". -- Gyrofrog (talk) 22:18, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Is the term/word carvel in general usage or only used in the world of boat building? I have not come across the word other than in boatbuilding but some would say I have lead a very sheltered life! Boatman 11:36, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
    • I had never seen the word "carvel" (other than a brand of ice cream) before I came across it in the tanbur entry in The New Grove Dictionary of Music. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 14:15, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
