Hi everyone, long time lurker here, been collecting the issues for a long time now and was wary of doing the tapering described in issue 18 on the false keel.
Basically I didn't want to get it wrong but did anyone take the measurements of where to start tapering these strips,like it starts tapering at the start of a certain rib frame and comes to a point at a certain point? Sorry for this newbie question on an old issue but I'm afraid to do it wrong and mess up the whole model.

Hi RJ, the subject of tapering planks has come up many times on the forum and I know when I started my first tapered plank I had the same thoughts as you.... where does it start and where does it finish and will I get it right  ....  ... You may find the following links of use to you to get a better understanding of what you are trying to achieve. Have a good look through and if you still have questions then do come back to me, am here to help if needed.... http://forum.model-space...aspx?g=posts&t=6169

It is difficult to say where the taper on your build should start and finish without seeing a pic of your build plus every build will be slightly different. However I think you will find it is not as difficult as it would first appear.... Good luck with it.... Regards Alan
