Q A's Revenge Posted February 21, 2014 #1 Posted February 21, 2014 Following on from this thread: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/5617-billings-boats-gladanfalken/ I need to buy some lime for planking the hull. The original planking is 1.8mm thick X 7mm as specified in the instructions. The only lime I can get locally is 1.5mm X 7mm. Do you think this will make much difference to the build? Poppi 1 Quote
dgbot Posted February 21, 2014 #2 Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) No difference what so ever. And you will be sanding an smoothing it anyway.

clloyd Posted February 21, 2014 #3 Posted February 21, 2014 You'll just need to be aware that you have slightly less thickness when you are sanding, so don't sand down too far Colin Quote -- Current Builds: HMS Pandora 1/64 Scratch Jeannie Johnston; 18thC Longboat with my son Previous Builds: HMB Bounty - Caldercraft Running Round my head: HMS Speedy (1782) - vaguely thinking POF "If at first you don't succeed, try it your wifes' way"
