Here are some pictures of planking progress to date. Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled plankers.
We've got about ten planks on each side now, so we're making good progress.
If you look at the close-up shot below, you'll see how the glue we're using (polyurethane, AKA "Gorilla Glue") foams up and fills the cracks between the planks. We like it better than epoxy, 'cause it's easier to work with, and it's waterproof (well, so is epoxy), and it doesn't smell bad, and it sands pretty easily, and it makes a nice strong bond. Highly recommended if you're used to planking with epoxy!

planks very much!
this afternoon was a good time and it was nice to get back into the swing of things. you can add that the drippy bits chisel off real easy-like; it actually does come out of a wool garment ("duck a big fog!"), and offa the arm hair even after setting up.
alas, my stupid toy camera ate the the photos and so there are no new pics of the most recent of developments.
