Evening all,

I suspect I have an issue with the fairing of the 2nd last bulkhead at the stern.

Putting on the 3rd plank each side and I am finding a lot of curvature is required. I suspect I did not take enough off when fairing the frames. Although, as can be seen in the two images, the 2nd last bulkhead has been faired to the last bulkhead.

So, what options do I have?

Remove the planks and re-fair the stern or use my electric plank bender or Amati manual plank bender to put more shape into the planks at this area.

Thoughts? Brickbats?

Regards

John

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
