If your target gluing pressure is 50 psi (doesn't sound like much), on a 10-inch wide press and a 50-inch long rib, you will have to generate a total of 25,000 lbs. of pressure. That's at least six Lincoln Town Cars sitting on top of the caul! > > Terry Farrell If you'll send me the six Lincoln Town Cars I'll send you the requisite clamps. The clamps will be much easier to use (and store when not in use) and I'll figure out something to do with the six Lincolns. Del
