    Am I correctly inferring that you've not had problems with cupping (or something else) as a result of finish only being applied to one side? If that's the case, I may buck the conventional wisdom that I've been reading and leave the back sides unfinished for both saving time and better glue. Or do you go ahead and finish the backside before installation and then the exposed side after installation?
