PLANKING THE DECKS

I've continued the decorative planking on the walkways and forecastle, using the European Red Cedar that I have left over from the hull planking. I apply glue to the under-deck and in the grooved edge of the plank using the Collano glue shown below:


I then cramp the plank to the edge of the gunwale and vertically tack in place until the glue sets.








I should finish this soon and then carry out the decorative planking on the quarterdeck.
