MDZ Posted April 20 Share #1 Posted April 20 I am a new member and not sure how posting works. The Marie Jeanne is my third model and I am trying to secure planks to bulk head. So far i am using binder clips clips size mini and small with various wood shapes in the binder to secure the plank plus an occasional dressmaker pin. I alos add some glue between boards. I am looking for suggestions on how to secure plansk. Scottish Guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccoyle Posted April 20 Share #2 Posted April 20 For first layer planking, I use plastic push-pins, driven into the bulkheads with a tack hammer via pilot holes.

Scottish Guy Posted April 20 Share #3 Posted April 20 Hello and welcome aboard here at MSW. I would go with Chris for the first layer planking. For the second layer I would use maybe rubber bands around the hull or cord strings. If you don´t have clamps that fit around the hull.
