Default Clamping long pieces of wood

I'm building an activity table for my son approximately 36"x60" using #20
biscuits for the joints on the four table legs. Joining the short sides was
easy because I have a couple 40" bar clamps. How can I do the long sides
though? I don't have any bar clamps longer than 40". I was thinking of
assembling the sides and then pushing them up against a wall with something
heavy against them. Any suggestions?



Drill holes at each end of a piece of 2x4 large enough for the head of
a clamp to fit. Presto! Clamp extender.
