I'm looking at all these soundboard press plans and they all seem to be designed to glue up the whole panel at once. Thus, they require a large platform (read square footage). Could one have a single rib press that glues one rib at a time? The board would be supported on a table and inserted through the press to the position of the rib that was being glued up. The dimensions would be considerably less. I realize it would take longer, but since I am not a high production shop, I can afford a little more time. David Love davidlovepianos@earthlink.net
