You can rip as you go or buy the completed wood package . I just cut my wood as I needed it. Chuck outlines pretty clearly what thickness you will need, If you’re cutting your own.

hi ,again☺ know my joureny begins .... after waiting for this build to start ,

i have order the 1/4 laser cut bulkhead set from Chuck , but i do have to wat for it.....😲

so ... am desided to plank the hull with boxwood and am also using the ayc for the dekk planking and many other parts 

because there are many parts thats  is painted , so fore this am using the ayc kits from Chuck.

 

As i can see, Modeler's sawmill do not ship to Norway/Euro. so i have to get it from Hobbymill.EU

thats means the sheets is in metric so i have to cut it twice to make it to inch... 

example: 1/4 (6.35 mm) for this i need 7mm sheet  then cut it down .. thats Europe...😉

there wil be some photos later lol...

Will hobbymill mill the wood to your desired thickness? I would inquire to see if they also offer a lumber package for the Winchelsea. I believe the owner of hobbymill.eu is also a MSW member.

yes  thee is a lumber package all milled ready to go, but the price is 314 euro for ayc and about 385 euro for boxwood +shipment and tax

if i get the sheets and mill my self the cost is about 90-100 euro ☺☺
