  1. I think it's a custom made plank In this case a plank that is the same width as the two connecting planks together.
  2. Many thanks for the photos and info. Indeed, no plank is identical, it is time consuming to work in this way
  3. Thanks, Climbing up the turret was quite an adventure. Fortunately there is no photo of this event...
  4. Planking update At the bow there is a very wide plank. Why??. An extra wide plank The plank is first made approximately on the correct arc Made wet and bent ready to glue done work in progress current status: Looks good, so far. There will be a lot of sanding to do... Made an investment for my retirement. Went on holliday, and found a new toy in southern Spain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/38.1_cm_/45_Model_1926_naval_gun Thanks for following
  5. Thank you. indeed, you are going to have to drill 224 small holes for this method. you can also use copper wire, which is more flexible. it is best to do some testing and practice on scrap pieces first.
  6. Yes, drill a pair of holes at the top of the hatch. Baker is on holiday with only his clumsy smartphone...if the link is not correct (Post 458).
  7. I used 2 metal pins to keep the canon port in place actually a quite sturdy solution 😉
  8. Thanks. if there is no traffic jam.then you are there in an hour and a half. and no speed cameras....☹️ PS. we have been to the usa a few times, much nicer than here
  9. i think the 4 long ones come in the middle (blue) the shorter ones in the other places. I'm not sure, this build happened a very long time ago.
