This is how I terminated the ends of the planks that met on the centerline. When attaching the planks, I applied a bead of thinned titebond glue to one mating edge with a small paintbrush the placed a dab of medium viscosity CA to each former and squeezed the planks tight and pinned them. The medium viscosity CA (gap-filling) gives you enough time to lay the plank on and pin it. If you don't dawdle :-)

The bevels are switched on alternating strips. I made some planks that were over 20 inches long for the P-47.

Here is the angle achieved for the planking. BTW, depending on how big of radius the former has, you can strip the balsa up to 3/8" wide. The piece shown is about 3/16" wide.

Gives you a cutting angle like such.

Anyway: Hot-glues a piece of 1/8" X 1/4" to the base of the balsa stripper.

Warm weather has allowed the covering to start. The wings are done and today should see these pods done. The hubcap is made from styrene.
