How to make a Cutting Board | Recycled Hardwood Flooring

What happens here

Place the assembled board between several bar clamps and tighten them securely, applying even pressure across the entire surface. Use cauls on both sides to prevent bowing and ensure the board dries flat. Allow the glue to dry completely for at least 24 hours.

Goal: Securely clamp the board for a strong and flat glue-up.
