Next project is going to be a Woody. Anyone out there have any pics of how you built the outside walls with or without fasteners?? If a strip model in particular, did you glue and fasten to framework or did you attach to a plywood subwall???

This is a long thread and probably more than you want, but it describes the process I used to strip the sides (cedar strip over ply) of my trailer.

About the best way to do strips is over a plywood underlayment.
I did mine like Dave, or he, like mine..I think Dave did square edges on the strips, I did bead and cove. Either will work. It's really not hard to do..Just fussy. ;) Take your time :?
Good luck with the build..Contact me with questions if you like.

It is a piece of art to say the least. Stunning and perhaps the best yet.
