quick way to trace planks for spiling

[Raymond_h2002]

Hey all, 

 

I wanted to share with you all a quick way i've found to trace planks onto scotch tape for spiling: apply the scotch tape, lay a piece of carbon paper on top, and burnish it with your finger (or something similar).  All that's left is to then mark the appropriate plank widths along each bulkhead and proceed as usual.

 

This works pretty well for tracing the curvature around each bulkhead to calculate your plank divisions as well.
