Plank width -question to Pavel Nikitin

[Dragdonius]

Hi
I posting following question to Pavel, because I think answer could be useful to everyone.
So Pavel. In your series of building Bounty (YouTube), part 9 when you were finding out the plank width for final planking, instead using calculator and quite sophisticated table, you have had a graph to do it. Now question. How did you made it? It seems to be very simple but precise the same time. This is about 8.3min
And this is about 10 min of the episode

Thank you
