Kurt Johnson Posted June 1, 2018 #1 Posted June 1, 2018 I’m having a senior moment, and need a kick start. When you make a tick strip for planking, do you start (or end it) from the depth of the rabbet or the surface of the keel. It should be obvious, but at this particular moment it ain’t.

alde Posted June 1, 2018 #2 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) I would think the bottom of the rabbit would most accurate. If you go from the surface of the keel you'll come up a bit short.

Kurt Johnson Posted June 1, 2018 Author #3 Posted June 1, 2018 Using a paper guide to determine the length between sheer and keel to help determine plank width. I’ve done a few times but with big chunks of time between doing it. Actually, now that I think about it should be the depth of the rabbet. The first one from the bottom is the garboard. mtaylor, lmagna and Canute 3 Member: Ship Model Society of New Jersey
