Abstract:
An apparatus and method is provided for glueing, assembly and clamping of large wood panels. Comprised of an open rack frame containing a quantity of clamping and assembly jigs, such that two separate and independent wood panels can be at various stages of completion. Each clamping and assembly jig consists of a spacer bar upon which the raw wood stock is placed and a clamping bar which provides pressure perpendicular to the surface of the panel. To use the present invention, wood stock of appropriate dimensions is coated with glue and placed within one or more of the clamping and assembly jigs. Conventional bar clamps are then used to provide pressure on a horizontal axis through the wood panel. Finally, the clamping bar is tightened to aid in alignment of the wood stock and eliminate bowing of the stock.
