I went to put the lid on the window seat today and found it warped a little bit. Is there anyway to get the warp out?

Put some weight on it. And wait.

Thanks, I had put a little weight on each end. I thought to bring it back slowly would be best.

You can attach cleats to the underside if you are in a hurry.

I thought about that, but this is the lid for the box. It is from Woodsmith mag:

The lid just sits on the box with molding.

I just had this problem & found I had to clamp it & pull it past where I wanted it to go overnight hoping for a little glue creep between the plys it worked but not quit to the point it was straight but where I'm using it will have interior partitions so I'll be able to pull it the rest of the way & fasten it.
