Shear Planking

[Dave Aukes]

69 years ago the Peterborough craftsmen ended up short with the planking at the shear line so they tacked narrow peace's of plank material to the raise the shear line. These little strips didn't make it through the fiber glass cloth removal.
I am now at the point in the rebuild that I need to deal with this issue. What is the best way to deal with this shortage.

Are there any options other than what the original building came up with? You could always scribe a line and take a bit more off but why make more work.

Agreed - just add pieces back to match those that were removed when removing the glass. Pretty straightforward. Why make it more difficult?
