Strip Planking

Wooden strips for use with strip planking. These are machined to have a small tongue and groove profile to make planking up very easy. Strip planking is the method of choice to make smooth curves and compound curves, particularly as part of a boats hull, and Quikstrip is the material of choice for fast construction of strip plank sections.

Here is a magnificent example fo what can be done using quikstrip. It is a scaled reporduction of an 1880's square rigger which can be sailed. It was built using Boatcraft Pacific Quikstrip and our Purbond to hold the Quikstrip hull until it can be sheathed. This web site is a very detailed description of the Little leon project.
