Strips are way to damn thin! I knew it would be difficult but not this bad. Sorry guys but it might take some time to get right. Try and update soon. cheers to the guys who chipped in. Obviously something I didn’t know before was the hull can be planked two ways. I’ve gone with the replica version. All your feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

At this point of time i have measuered 7 full planks down to the wales. Under the wales I've planned the first spilled plank. As per Chris picture post. Got it marked out on the hull and test bent some planks to see the lie of them. At this stage no clinkering out so could be on a winner? We shall see..

Keith, The more you chime in the better. Dont be sorry. Everything helps. Im sure i have watched something like that but cant remeber if it was tbe Gothenburg or the Endeavour. I have been warned however the the AOTS book references are not as acurate as you think they are. Which is where the planks are shown all terminating at the stem. Cheers

Hey there mate. Just wondering how you endeavour went? Was just looking through your build log as I’m doing the same ship now. Cheers

Hi Chap,
Things on hold a bit at the mo.
Endeavour is tucked away in storage for now.
Looking at moving shortly to Taranaki from Wellington, have sold the house, bought another but no one can move....
Endeavor is planked, but not happy with the Decks which I'll be sanding back in the near future.
Not particularly happy with the build overall but time will tell.
I need to finish Sanson before Endeavour. (Something I need to do starting tomorrow before I go "Stir Crazy!!"
Happy to send you some photos on PM if you wish or offer otherwise advice. 🙂
Cheers and Regards,
Harry.

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.
