Hi All,

I have been through a number of my publications regarding Deck Planking, "Shift of Butts" for American built Clippers but have not found anything definitive.

Would someone here have some idea of the above?

Iam currently working on a Mamoli - 1/96 Flying Cloud

Decking material - Tanganika - 0.5 X 3.0mm

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

Cheers and Regards,

 

Harry.

Hi Harry,

Have you looked at the Young America 1853 build log here at MSW and/or Ed's book and plans on her?  Maybe it will be applicable to Flying Cloud.  If you have not already seen it go to post #131 in https://modelshipworld.com/topic/10678-young-america-1853-by-edt-finished-196-pob-extreme-clipper/#comment-322547    It continues for a number of posts on planking the various decks.

PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.   Click on http://trafalgar.tv   There is no cost other than the 30 seconds of your time.  THANK YOU

Hi Alan,

Many thanks for that.

Gives me some good ideas to ponder.

 

Looks like a "Four Butt" Shift?

 

Cheers and Regards,
