I'm building wall unit bookcases. The main unit will be 10' long, 7' tall and 12 inches deep.
I also built a smaller stand alone bookcase. When I attached the face frame, I used all of my clamps. I realized, that when I build the face frame for the main unit, there's no way I'll be able to clamp it together especially in the middle.
So I say say to myself: "Self, use cauls".
I figure I could use 2x4's and clamp them vertically over the vertical parts of the individual units. I assume the cauls should be tappered somewhat, but, I was wondering how much? Assuming, that I use 8' 2x's as the cauls, how much in the middle should be flat? What about the angle from that point?
Thanks in advance.
Gary.
