This is, by far, the best video on panel glue ups on youtube. Thank you.

I watch a lot of videos and I've seen this matter discussed dozens of times, even a few visual representations. This was the best, and showed the proper way to correct it too.

Wow! I have certainly been guilty of "Cranking, and Cranking" the clamps until my arms hurt. You just blew my mind Jason. I feel like i just turned the corner on my woodworking skill set. Thank you for sharing this information.

Well done. Something that most of us "know", but you laid it out in a way that is difficult to ignore in the future. This approach eliminates the need for cauls 75% of the time. Thank you for illustrating this in a simple way!

Thanks Jason! I used this technique yesterday during a glue-up and was surprised how cupped my panel was when I initially put the straight edge down. Saved me lots of sanding! Thanks again.

@leroymellix5647 8 ай бұрын

Thank you Sir, your comments and the cadence of your delivery are spot on. There was a time when we had to build a clamp rack for a glue up and close the joints flatten the work with the wedges in the rack system. You hit the method of operation right on. Love the wood grain!

A master class in an essential wood working skill- flat panel glue ups! Great video. As I watched your video I was remembering the evolution of this glue up process in our own shop. Currently, we do it exactly as shown - in every detail. But, we have had employees that swore by using cauls and cranking the clamps to the breaking point. In fact, one fella did successfully prove his strength by breaking a pipe clamp! We had to wonder if there was any glue left in the joint!

Love this process glad I saw this right before I'm about to glue up a table.. wood whisperer did a great analysis about parallel clamps and mentioned how they are not the best for glue ups on panels due to bar flexing causing a bow. That was a good visual representation! I'll use a mix of parallel and pipe clamps and use this technique for sure

@worldtreedesign 10 ай бұрын

Pipe clamps apply more pressure than a parallel clamp however they will also bow. Alternate top and bottom with whatever clamp you decide to use and check for flat with a straight edge like Jason says.
