Hi Jon,
Pardon my lame brain, but what does KBI stand for?  Thanks!

Spring clamps will not uniformly space the gap in the b/r hole and cauls
will help with compression set.  The glue should be thick enough not to
wick
into the felt too far.

The felt swells more then the wood otherwise the KBI would not be as
effective.
