I was thinking about your original glueup problem...I would bet that a good part of what happened was caused by the way you clamped your stock. 1- did you clamp the multi-lam and delignit together without flat cauls top and bottom 2- looking at the clamp setup in your new glueup, the clamping cauls reaching across that wide presumably flat table are exerting unequal pressure, ie lots of pressure at the edges and considerably less in the center. As well, the clamps reaching over that wide distance will tend to deform (cup) the previously flat gluing table. The clamp pressure above and below should be right on the piece not offset. Just some thoughts..hope its helpful Jim I Duane McGuire wrote: > Well the die is cast.
