Default RE: Desire 60 build, first jig built balsa.

Yes the press is lighter but, I put 10, 1/4" bolts throught the 5 pieces of unistut and tighten them down equally, so I get plenty of downward force without having to use a zillion lbs. of weight. The directions on the glue says it cures in 4-6 hrs. but I have been leaving them in the press at least overnight 12-14 hrs average.
