Maury S Posted June 18, 2015 Share #1021 Posted June 18, 2015 In addition to what Druxey mentioned, I picked up a trick from Chuck Passaro re bending. I still spile rather than edge-bend, and have found a very good (hot) hair drier or iron works well for face bending and twisting. I hardly ever wet planks any more.

mtaylor Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share #1022 Posted June 18, 2015 I've been reading and re-reading those tutorials as well as the Jim Roberts' book on planking. And I should add.. Dan's wisdom has helped immensely with this. I don't have issues, at this point, with the lining and spiling, or the bending and fitting of planks. What has been giving me fits until I started sketching out the area is where the stern ends of the planks start to come around the end of the hull to start landing on the transom. There's a fashion piece that covers the counter and the ends of the hull planks. After re-studying, re-thinking, the Licorne drawings just weren't detailed enough as I was cutting the fashion piece short by about 1/8" or so. Just enough that I was seeing gaps and not a happy camper with the appearance. I've delved into a couple of French frigate monographs and have sorted out that that the lower end of the fashion piece and plank ends are hidden by the quarter gallery drop. The solution was simple once I figured out what was needed... Now that the laser cutter is sorted out, I'm focusing on finishing up the wide planking... sanding... and hopefully pictures in a couple of days. After this, it's the garboard strake and then lining off the rest of the hull for the narrow planking. A bit of the pain to have several different widths of hull planking but it's sorting itself out. src, tadheus, mobbsie and 15 others 18 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtaylor Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share #1024 Posted June 24, 2015 Some proof of life and work in progress.... I think I'm getting the hang of this.... I've planked both sides with required wide wale planks. The port side has been sanded but not finish sanded.. pretty rough sanded if you ask me, but it's ready for the narrow hull planks to be laid down. I need to sand the starboard side which should commence this afternoon... I hope. The stern/transom area I think I have sorted out. There's a covering piece needed and the fashion piece along the counter to the transom as well as the covering board where the transom meets the counter. These will be finished once the planking is complete but before final sanding.... The planks look a bit damp as I've wiped them down with some water to clear off most of the sanding dust and also to help raise the grain a tad. I've got a couple of pesky dings that need to be addressed and this is the logical (to my mind) starting point for that process. As always, clicking on the photos will enlarge them and comments and advice are welcome. On a side-note, I'm also developing drawings for the laser cutter to produce all the carving blanks, windows, gun carriages, carved railings, and assorted fiddly bits like the ship's boats. Some of this stuff is just too darn tiny to cut on a scroll saw.. or I need new eyes.
