This morning I went through a trial run of gluing-up 3 pieces of wood. I used scrap pine. It was a worthy exercise as it allowed me to better calibrate the biscuit joiner and test-out the box clamps that will hold it together. Working quickly, I glued the biscuits and boards and closed-up the clamps before the glue completely set. After it dries, I will sand it to see the effect on a finished product. Then, on to the walnut glue-up! I won't get a chance to un-clamp until probably Wednesday. See photos below. Click to enlarge. As Ive been sending updates every day, be sure to check the prior blog entries.
