I was forced to laminate several pieces of balsa to build up thicker stock, what I did was to evenly spread some tight bond with a old Credit Card, so the glue was consistently applied over the 2 sides of the wood quickly, I then placed the pieces on a flat surface covered in wax paper,and placed a piece of thick glass over that, I used some books I had to weight it down, but any weight or clamp would be fine as long as the pressure is consistently applied over the length of the wood pieces.

after sitting over night the wood was strait and very strong, the wax paper also prevents the wood from sticking.

I like the wood glue mainly for positioning,working time, and its allot easier to sand after cutting out parts.

spreading with the CC is easy and it goes quickly,I also scrape any excess glue off in the trash and throw the card in a small pail of water to keep it clean so there isn't any chunks in the glue, the key is don't apply too much glue just enough to cover the 2 opposing surfaces, I also liked using the glass so I could check alignment as I was weighting it down for thicker pieces a little blue tape on each end helps keep them aligned as well
