I’ve had good success pressing 4/4 solid stock together in a vacuum bag but your situation is different because what you want to press is square in cross-section if I understand you correctly. If your posts are 3“ x 3“ then the bag will be putting a significant amount of pressure on all the edges, along with the pressure on the main face. The pressure on the sides will decrease the amount of pressure on the main face so I would not use a vacuum press for this, unless you do a grouping of them side-by-side, rather closely to each other with one thick caul over the whole group. Hope this makes sense.
