Well...clamps came off today....for a while, anyway....no strange creaks, cracking noises....Might be getting the hang of doing a glue up..
Needed to crosscut a board for the top and bottom of the collar...

Doesn't take very long to cut through a 3/4" board...when the saw is 28" long...Top one then needed a bevel, to match the angle of the sides...

With the other clamps pulling the sides in tight. Beveled top used the smaller F style HF clamps..C clamps worked well, to glue the wedge-shape sides to the door...
Need to figure out how to hang 4 saws..
