Default lapstrake rabbet

Hi

Anywhere on web for details on how to rabbet cut for lapstrake ends?
Thanks


There is different rules all depending thickness of planking and if the grove is
in both overlapping planks as they shuld, or you cheat a little and make some
being on only one plank., ------ but with inch planking the length is usealy
round one and a halve feet thereabout, and with halve inch some feet will
normaly be enough.
Now the grove don't harm anything, so making it longer just perform a more
smooth ending , but somtimes you can even get the grove down to halve a feet ,
but this all depend what design and type of vessel.
Others proberly point to other measures but still this depend on many things and
your own judgement and skills proberly show best.
