I hope you enjoy it.

When I made my cauls I was worried that separated sides would bend
(twist) more than they would if the two pieces were glued directly
together, so forgo the "infinitely" adjustable separation between
bolts. *I put the panels to be glued at one end and then supplement
the more distant bolt with a clamp over the panel. *I'd make the cauls
even thicker, if I did it again. *Rigidity is everything.
