To all,
I was in a hurry - let's just get that out of the way.....
I edge glued a top for an end table and didn't ensure it was flat when I left it to dry (trying to finish before dinner).
The joint is good, but the panel (cherry 3/4" x 16" x 24") is warped diagonally by about 1/4 inch corner to corner.
The top will be hinged, so the warp will show.
Right now it's half hanging off the bench with some weights on it in an attempt to flatten it - which seems to be working.
My questions are:
If I do manage to get it flat, will it just warp back a few days after I remove the weight?
Any other suggestions, other than ripping and re-glueing (which I can't do b/c I've already cut to size ?
Thanks in advance....
John
