I discovered this traditional technique for tightly clamping two pieces of wood together a few years ago when I was laying engineered oak floorboards in my bathroom.
Right now, I'm making shelves for the spare room wardrobe/ cupboard I've been refurbishing - out of off cuts from the extension of my kitchen table youtube.com/watch?v=Odh0fR13Q9E&t=1s. I needed to join the off cuts together to make the shelf deep enough, and with my only quick grip clamps already being used on the other shelf, I decided to bring out the Wedge Clamp Board for the other shelf.
They're so simple to make. You simply need a piece of 2"x2" timber, which you can then cut in half diagonally down its length using a typical wood saw. The clamp then needs screwing to a larger piece of timber. And finally, you need a sheet of wood (MDF or ply) that is larger than the two pieces of wood you are clamping together, as this forms the base of the clamp - or the wedge clamp board.
