Regarding not planking the deadwood...I don't know if you are going to paint the hull white, then it really doesn't matter, but the "facings" that cover the stern post are 1mm thick and the supplied planking is 0.8mm thick. So if you want to level that out then it would be handy to cover a bit of the deadwood and sand it back to the required thickness that would level everything out in the end result. I used some filler afterwards because I also didn't plank the deadwood, but saw later the thickness differences in the wood. Hope my store makes a bit sense lol.
Great planking by the way! Nice base for the second layer.

Update:
Closed the second band on both sides, so now i'm about the halfway point of the hull. Progress feels really slow, but I thought I needed about a half year for the hull planking, but i'm nearly 2 months underway, so that's a faster then I expected.
I think I have the more difficult strakes behind me, apart from the garboard strake. But who knows...maybe there are some difficult planks here and there...we will see.
I'm still having fun with planking!
By the way...it needs to see a piece of sanding paper yet.

I thought about making one, but my graphic design skills pretty much start and end at Microsoft Paint, I'm more of a spreadsheets guy lol. I may give GIMP a try, thanks for the suggestion.
I thought about painting it by hand, but there would probably be more rectangles and other odd shapes than squares if I tried that.
If I would do it by hand...it would be pretty easy with a good set of masking tape?

I'm with you! I like to have a more active posture and it's easier to stand up and sitting down on these things.
