A bit on lining off - Acorn to Arabella

The planking process can be something of a mystery. Unlike houses that are square and easily divided up to figure out siding, boats require a little bit more thought and layout for them to look right.
In this video we go over a little bit of the lining off process. Lining off is the process of determining what each plank of the boat is going to look like so that the hull looks evenly planked.
We have a lot of planking coming up soon so this was an opportune time to have our friend Thad Danielson come and explain a bit of this process to lay the groundwork for the job to come. One of the teachers at the WoodenBoat school, Thad has been a great resource for us as we figure things out throughout the build.
Finally, we haven't forgotten about our stuffed Macaw poll. Tennis ball treatment or no? We'll let you know at the end of the video.
