Strip: planing interior hull
Hey Folks,
I am currently building an 8’ strip pram using cove & bead WRC. Planing down the exterior seems to be a no-brainer. I just bought a low-angle plane to avoid tear out.
Getting the inside smooth enough to scrape or sand looks like it is going be more challenging. I have heard of hoof knives and other various curved tools, but would appreciate any thought you have. The boat is 4’ at the widest point, so the radius will not be as tight as that found at the chine of a kayak.
Thanks much!
Tim
