Bob, that's great. Quick question - from the picture you had your clamps apply force perpendicular to that split, versus pressing from above it and below it. I'm a woodworking novice, so forgive my ignorance - why did you place your clamps there, versus the top and bottom of the set? Is it because the top corner is curved and you couldn't properly set clamps there? Or did the wood bow out to the side and you had to push it back in? Just curious, thanks.
