Looks someone already answered your question Tasanhalas. There are some other wooden lathes with really subtle difference. If you want to be really sure, you can also use callipers to make sure the the dimension matches the manual.

Planking was very difficult for me. Are you on the first layer?

Dropped some planks but also gradually narrowed to the planks by approx half, starting where the planks began to overlap at both the bow and stern. Ended up by using lots of filler (probably too much) on the first planking. Second planking was a bit easier. Used the same technique but because it was thinner, it was easier to curve.

I'll post it on your site as well. Show me pictures
