Subject : RE: Face gluing multiple 6' poplar boards at once

I've used my bag dozens of times for solid wood and to laminate 1/4 in solid to a staved core for exterior doors and so far have had no problems. I have found by elevating the solid wood laminations off the platen it pulls the bag down harder and provides more downward pressure. so if you set the three boards on top of say something that's an 1 1/2 thick and a 1/4 in narrower than the three boards the bag will pull down and under the three boards you glueing up.

the only drawback to using clamps is, if you are gluing up three boards you really need five. the extra two boards to equally distribute the clamp pressure. in essence the other two boards would act as cauls.
