Drywall screws can ease your clamp shortage

You're laminating stock to be cut into project parts. But, you don't have enough clamps to flatten the workpieces.
Before you start, transfer your pattern to the top layer. Apply the glue and laminate as usual. Then, instead of clamping, fasten the layers with drywall screws driven into the waste areas.
