and after planks
more planks
after cutting the shape of the planks i laid the edge on the marks on the ribs, then i transferred the width of the plank at that point to the plank template "by eye"
when i glued the new plank down, i lined up its edge with the marks for the next plank on the ribs
actually, i cut the front of the both second planks to wide... but the third plank covered it up and i decided to let it go at that... that part of the hull will be pretty covered with the internals are put in
i did find that having cut one plank, the outer edge of that plank was a pretty good fit as the inner edge of the next plank... which makes cutting the templates to size a lot easier
