Hi ya Mike

If you have a look at the Cervia build (the tug in the Master Class) that is longitudinally planked and there is a bit of a description of how I planked that model on there.

Also, there is diagonal planking on the Spashette build - plus the RAF launch build.   Two different styles of diagonal planking.

The best way to learn is have a go.
