HI Everyone, I for one do not like double plank kits main reasons working with veneers I can not get the corect shapes done and two I always have problems at the turn of the bilge the second layer will not lay corectly, does anyone know of a tutotorial for doing the second planking, I try to avoid these but it seems like more and more kits are going in this direction so I guess I need to learn how to do it. THANKS FOR ANY HELP Don
For laying down veneer with white or yellow glue, that glue is reactivated by heat. So brush on a coat of glue, let it dry, and when your planking veneer is where you want it, use an iron ( a model aircraft Monokote Iron is handier for model size work) to melt the glue and stick the veneer in place. I used to do this all the time when I was working on furniture.
