I am making a solid core bed frame. The headboard is 84" x 60" x 4". To get the 4" thickness I intend to glue up several 3/4" and 1/2" sheets of plywood. I intend to use A-1 mahogany venered sheets for the outsides.
I plan to to glue and screw the sheets together except for the last one. How can I attach the last sheet? If I use wood glue I must clamp it. Can someone provide a link/instructions on how to clamp this to apply even pressure. Obviously hand clamps will only secure the outside 3".
Should I consider using different bonding material, such as a poly glue or contact cement that don't require claming?
I really don't want to glue and screw the last sheet on and glue veneer to it.
I live in Sacramento, CA. Does anyone know of a commerical woodshop that can bag and vacuum the sheets?
Thanks.
