Smok_Baltazar Posted August 7 Share #1 Posted August 7 Hello Guys, I'm on my way to build my very first wooden ship model. And need some tip to make that lining going straight instead of arch way seeing on picture. Boiling that part in water will help? mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronald-V Posted August 7 Share #2 Posted August 7 (edited) This will help: https://www.youtube.com/@chuckpassaro7634 I would recommend you to watch part 1-4 of the Winchelsea video's Chuck Passaro demonstrates a really easy method of edge bending wood with a travel iron. Works like a charm! Edited August 7 by Ronald-V Smok_Baltazar, mtaylor, SiriusVoyager and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsdpic Posted August 7 Share #3 Posted August 7 If you click on the "articles database" tab at the top and scroll down a bit, you will also see several articles about planking that may help.

mtaylor Posted August 9 Share #9 Posted August 9 Smok, I suggest you open a build log for your model(s). It's a great way to get help and also meet others.
