FINALLY! I'm on the last lap of the planking. It's been a nightmare journey but it's good to see the end is nigh.BigGrin
I'm actually surprised how smoothly these last 10 planks are going.
I must confess I cheated a little. After reading the instuctions and looking at the diagram for the measuring of the palnks, I decided to put it in the 'too hard basket'. I decided to measure the widest end of the plank and then the narrow end. I then cut a taper and fitted it and it worked well.

Very well done Sinbad, looks like you'll end up with a very nice finish. You may have had your issues with planking but think you've done a great job of it... very well done, your efforts have certainly paid off....Cool Cool
