Looking very good, Zoly! Question: will you use the scoring method for planking or other technic\s? Are you laying planks one on each side?

Hello everybody,a small update ,the gap is getting smaller.
Good progress, Zoly!
Thank you guys!!
I made more progress on the port side planking,not perfect but this only the first layer,it will be a guideline to correct the mistakes I made on the first layer ,actually a practice dress rehearsal for the second layer.
Very nice progress, Zoly. Her shape coming alone even this is only a first layer.
This is my way doing edge bending
Steps
1.soaking
2.clamping into shape
3.using a hair dryer to dry the plank
4.glue it into place
