Aren't you using 3/16th for hull planking?  My planking fan downloaded as part of the monograph only has a pre-defined line for 3/16th.

yes a do use 3/16 .... i yust some time ago take some messurment from this why.. i do not know..LOL,

in the future i need to check wat i have is correct.... but its to late now so i just has to go with wat i have.😊

Hi,

i use line tape, used on wyteboard , after installing you can dust om some pigments so it looks like iron.

Hi again, and tanks for the likes ...

i have just discover something on my plank sheet spreder, 

the provided marker for 5/32 plank does not match the 5/32 sheet (ca 4mm wide) is more betwin 3/16 to 7/32 (5mm)

i think also this my had some impact om my planking since i have used this marker in the prosess ,

se the photo.

Here is another photo , the mistake i did with the planking at the stem is the curve of the planks 

is to severe to the bow so it gets a bit messy at the end, 

so this is wat i need to work on in my next prodjekt 😉

some new photo , my eyes diddent want to see wats going on ..... so i have to lay out some tape strips to see the run for the plank

at the bow , i do have tick marks but it seem wrong , the tape helps me on that.

the are 10 planks to the keel inkl. the garboard plank, i can know see were it goes , and it seems i have to place it up wards in the bow to get it 

right for my planks , i may have dunn something wrong with my other planks so i have this problem know...

in chucks photo the garboard plank sitts more aft then mine, maby it dosent matter at this point.....

in one of the photo i mark the garboad plank in red so you can see were it goes.

svein erik

yes indid.... maby a video on the subject on msw  , wil be helpful😉

thanks for the advice and warning......  and yes my eyes are playing with my head😨,

i think i need to ripp of the garboard plank also and make a new one and place it more fare back then i did 

so it wil flow more strait into the bow 😊

The curve is too severe on those planks already on the hull.   They should be straighter at the bow....it should follow your lining off if that was correct.   

 

Chuck

thats wat i was afraid of.... lol  i need to ripp of te 2 plank and re do it so it flows strait and follows the marking i made..

i think am on the wrong track here...... 

i edge bendt the 2 plank a bit but it seems thats wrong to do here 😷

thanks for all the coments and likes... 😊

am getting ready to plank the 2 plank belt , all the tick marks are in place and i also took a control of the run,

wat i can se at the bow is the plank seems to go more upwards then the first belt .

in my 2 belt there is totel of 10 planks if i go dow to 9 i may have to use a drop plank aft, 

i think is going to be to wide ....
