Do I Have Enough Clamps?


Recommended Posts

Clamps are like screw drivers and pliars. As soon as you think you have enough to cover every situation. You find out you need another one.

Actually I see where it didn't press flat against the backing board in some areas. I don't think it will be a problem as these areas were likely to be scrap anyway, I'm going to be gluing something else up tomorrow, I think I will use some long boards across the top and back this next time.

Add a veneer, or about ten bits of masking tape to the center of that length of wood, and it will add more pressure to the center with only a clamp at each end.
