Started the glue-up of the top of my project - sugar gum if you remember. Did 2x 2 boards last night and joined these together tonight.
Did a dry run - a bit tight but I thought it was OK.
Cleaned all down with actone, wet both sides - put on the glue and started to pull it all in from each end. Two ends ,et and then started with the centre but the ends had stuck so couldn't get the pieces how I wanted so decided to pull apart. It was difficult - but I did it. Will saw the biscuits and re- plane the pieces and have another go tomorrow.
Shows that 10 minutes is too short.
