Polish the edges of the ribs where the arch is relatively large, in this way the contact surface will be enlarged and it will be convenient to attach the fortune paulownia wood palnks.
Immerse palnks into the water for several minutes, and use iron to make them into certain arch after that at your will, the immersing process is to avoid the fracture of the planks.

After the planking work of the hull is done, please polish the surface and attach some poly-putty to make the ship look firmer and also ensure the surface look smooth.

Notice: you have to attach the planks to the hull naturally, and don't crank the planks on purpose otherwise the planks will not be stuck up. If there are seams between planks, you have to cut out a piece of plank to fix the seams, to fill them.
Attach the planks naturally, and don't twist them while doing,
