Sound board trim jig/ panel press

[David Love]

That works but an easier method is to just cut the bottom of a short piece
of  several 1x4s at a 45 degree angle.  Clamp them lightly to the inside of
the case right over the trim with the 45 degree angle facing toward the
trim.  Then with a mallet tap the 1x4s down until they squeeze the trim into
the panel and the side of the case.  Protect the inside of the case, if you
need to, with a thin piece of felt.

>From Erwinspiano at aol.com:

 

  Michael Spreeman had asked me for a shot of the jig that I use to glue on
the long sound board trim.  I was looking for a better shot of the panel
press picture I just posted with kent. Any way it is shown laying on the
panel mock up so it may give a better understating of the press while it
shows the molding jig as well.

  The Jig by the way is the brain Child of my pal Dave hughes. While these
are Made of falcon wood Michael made his of metal & franlkly there would be
less flexing with metal. That being said it doesnt' take a great deal of
force with these babies to get a nice glue line if the dry fit looks good.
