S45 Construction trimming planks P02

Photo 2 shows the planks after being trimmed close to the stringes. John use a # 11 exacto to trim the balsa planks. Go slow and take multiple passes here. You dont want to remove too much material or you will get a gap when the bottom is planked. Also trim the rails close at this point. The rails/side joint will be finished once the hull is taken off the board.
