Nice job on this planking. The first belt on the starboard seems really very beautiful.

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 ....

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.

It does get a bit tricky at this point, your eyes seem to tell you one thing but that doesn't correspond to the tick marks.  You really have to trust the marks, I found trimming based on the second bulkhead vs. at the bow worked better, plus constantly rechecking the remaining distance. 

 

Your planking is looking great, nice and tight.

Glenn

the garboard plank

I played around a lot with that plank. It’s a challenge to get it right for sure.

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.

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.

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.
