I try out three methods of clamping floorboards to demonstrate which floor clamp is the best - for installing my engineered oak flooring.
And for all those carpenters out there who might be thinking that I should have installed noggins or a sub layer with this flooring, it's NOT NECESSARY. These are supreme oak 220mm wide x 21mm thick 10 layer hardwood ply under-core floorboards with a 6mm thick oak top layer. They're tongue and grooved all the way round so they're designed to be laid directly onto joists WITHOUT support on the ends if these finish away from a joist.
