I'm making 17 white ash cabinet doors that vary in height but have width between 17.5" & 21". Most of my raw stock is between 5" to 6" material. Most glue ups will take 4 or 5 pieces.
Question is: what's the correct procedure in the glue up procedure? Do I just glue up 4 or 5 pieces all at one time or do you glue up piece 1 & 2 and connect it to glue up pieces 3 & 4 and then glue up the two half's?
I have enough clamps to do 2 half's at a time, but want to know if thickness alignment become a concern when try to piece together 4 or 5 pieces at a time. Trying to speed up the glue up procedure without buying a zillion clamps.
I don't have a thickness planer wide enough to handle that width, so I plan on using my 18/36 drum sander to handle that width.
Any help with procedure would be appreciated. Thanks,
