Try to find 'Building Classic Small Craft' or 'More Building Classic Small Craft', both by John Gardner. You'll find more traditionally planked Dories than you can build in a lifetime. The plans are not full sized, of course, but Gardner has included offsets in most cases, so they can be lofted. Well, you could also try "The Dory Book" by Gardner too! I don't own it myself, but I guess it fits the bill even better. Just asking: is it a compilation, containing the dories from the books I mentioned, or does it contain new material? "The Dory Book" was prior to the small craft books. As I recall the dory book has more technical details then the small craft books. It explains every aspect of building a dory. Apple crooks, scantlings, bevels, offsets, lofting, sail plans, it's all there. Check with your local library. If they don't have it they should be able to borrow it through the inter-library exchange program. Get all of them. kw |
