This is turning into a great set of videos! Sure wish I could have seen these prior to my start. A lot of worrying would have been put to rest. Nothing like seeing the work being done. In the end my process was the same as yours but I had a bit of trouble with the Titebond drying a bit too much before I could really get to taping or clamping tight. The other thing I noticed is that you removed the entire strip each time you went to bevel the edge. I loosely clamped a strip just so it could be slid fore and aft. Then removed a few clamps ahead of and behind where I wanted to bevel, and simply pulled the strip away from the forms enough to bevel it and replace it to check fit quickly. As I pull it away it slides through the clamps easily. As I move down the length of the strip I remove and replace clamps as needed.
Good Stuff!
Is that fine music playing in your shop too?
