    Mark, Thank you for your reply regarding which plank edge to bevel, including the last strake. To change the subject, I have only visited England once, but didn't have the opportunity to see Ailsworth. Thank you again. Alfred Ellyson Ailsworth

    Just completed false keel, bulkheads and sheer plank on scratch build model of the vessel Ellen W. . Now lining off and preparing for planking in three bands. As a novice and after reading and videos, I am confused regarding beveling planks in order to have a better fit. Please help. Is the garboard plank to be beveled on the bottom edge next to the keel as well as the top edge.? Are the planks to be installed above the garboard moving up toward the sheer be beveled on the top edge (toward sheer)or the bottom edge ( toward keel) of the plank. Should beveling moving near the stern and bow be decreased? Thank you for any assistance.

    Thoroughly enjoyed the planking information. I am a novice and have a question regarding beveling planks. I understand that the garboard plank should be beveled along the top and bottom edge. When planking up from the keel, which edge of a plank should be beveled, top edge or bottom edge? Thank you for a reply.
