When you see shavings like this ...

... you know a skew rebate plane is at work.

Shiplapping is the joining of boards using an overlapped rebate. The advantage of this is to allow for movement while presenting an outward solid and sealed surface.

The rebate is on each, but opposite sides of the board. In this case, I have made the rebate 10mm wide. This will allow for an overlap of about 7-8mm.
Here I have made use of sections of Black Walnut that would otherwise be considered offcuts ...

The boards are 6mm thick, and each rebate is just 3mm high ...

The waste was now chiselled out ...

The boards could now be cut to length and fitted. The rebate gap between boards was set with a spacer ...

No glue is used as the boards are free to expand into the gap. A single screw holds them close to the overlap ...

Done ...
