Have fun cal, just finished lining mine...I found it easier to line the left hand side of the ports, then right, (port and starboard) followed by bottoms then tops...took me almost a week, but looks a lot better...Now the lower hull planking...this is where the cursing will start!!...

Hi Cal,
Your build is looking very good.
I have just finished the last part
of the hull planking and didnt find
it too bad.
Although, I didnt stick to the mag to
the letter. I figured that that part
of the hull is at the bottom, and is
either going to be painted or covered
in copper. SO, I carried on planking
as per the rest of the hull, and just
added droppers as required.
Good luck with it.
Jim
