bigcreekdad Posted August 31, 2019 #1 Posted August 31, 2019 Have watched Chuck's video several times, and am now starting to plank my Cheerful build. I'm having trouble getting a smooth curve when I do this. I end up with almost an abrupt turn at the curve rather than smooth. Is anyone using a jig of any kind to alleviate this? thibaultron 1
bigcreekdad Posted September 1, 2019 Author #2 Posted September 1, 2019 I will try tomorrow, but it's really pretty simple...at the point of the bend, the angles going down from each side are not equal. thibaultron 1

shane762 Posted September 3, 2019 #7 Posted September 3, 2019 I can't wait to try this. I'm getting ready to start planking a Draketail workboat model. The hull will be filled and sanded smooth after planking so it's a great test bed. Chuck and mtaylor 2
