I know there's one in every crowd and today it's me. I can't see the point of using any kind of clamp because the bevel on a strip varies every few inches and, if you want a tight fit the whole length of the strip, you're best using a small, sharp plane a few inches at a time. If you're going to be satisfied with a tight fit on the outside but varying width "V" shaped voids on the back, why not just run your strips through a table saw set at 10 degrees or whatever angle seems appropriate for your boat, or that strip?

Don't want to seem negative but it just seems like a lot of work that in the end is just an approximation.
