I've sanded the coat of filler smooth. Got a few spots that need more filler. Hopefully that will finish things off.

After you've sanded and got smooth give it a couple coats of sanding sealer which will help when starting to glue the next layer. It stops the wood being too porous.

Looking better and better each time I look in, looks like you're getting closer to applying the second layer of planking, that's when she'll really start to look like something special..... well done.....Cool Cool

Pack 7


I've finished the filling and sanding process. I must admit this is by far the smoothest planked hull I've built so far.

After spending almost 2 hours cleaning my bench from all the sanding dust, I'm moving on.

Stop by later

Before I started planking I decided to paint the gun ports to avoid spoiling the finished planking.

Sounds like a sensible option. Should give a nice clean finish once you get the next layer of plsnking in place.

Very nice work Mark, amazingly built. I am just about to finish planking myself, and gonna start to sand and file. I just wanted to ask what type of wood filler did you use? and I want to have mine ready but I honestly don't know what would work best with this model. I have normal wood filler but it is not white in colour when drying.

Thank you very much.

Oliver.

Oliver, I actually used spackling compound. Easier to work with.
