dragonman,
you are right about the clamps getting hot.
my first glue up i did,it was in the hot box for 4 hrs.went to take it out just to look at it and grabbed it by the c-clamp  eeeooowwww that was hot
i forgot that everything in there was going to be at 175*.

i agrre with ya Pat, you do need to let them sit for atleast a couple of days.i usually let them sit a week after they are unwrapped.
i always wanted a harley,untill it became the "thing to ride"
i ride because i love to,not to be part of the crowd
