Help/advice needed - cupped panels
I need some helpful advice on how to tackle a problem.
I am building some shelving out of Blackbutt to fit under the overhead cupboards in a kitchen.
I've glued up all the panels, which are 340mm wide, but because of the humidity and storms we're having in Brisbane at the moment three of the four panels have moved/cupped. The only one that didn't move was the one that was sitting flat on the workbench with another panel on top. The other three all had one face exposed to the air, and that exposed face has absorbed the moisture from the air. I really need to get these flat again, as the ends are all mitred to form a box shape. The mitres had already been cut on the top and bottom of the box before they moved, but the gable ends have not yet been cut, and that board hasn't moved/cupped.
At the moment, I have them stacked and stickered so that both faces are exposed to the air, trying to get some balance in the moisture content back into each face. Is there any better way, or anything else I can do to help?
