    I would apply the finishing wood last.  That way it will cover up any dings that occur along the way.

    Take a look at this from the Carving Glove Guy.  I have used this to sharpen my microchisels for several years.  https://thecarvinggloveguy.com/image_preview.html?img=TCGG-DYSTROPKT

    Making a template like John said is the easiest thing to do.  Cut the outboard line and, using a compass or divider, draw the inboard line.  Sheet basswood 1/16" is easily cut with a #11 blade.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
