Left to dry... the homemade knotty pine flat bars worked out really well (for this, and many subsequent panels). The blue is masking tape holding pieces of wax paper around the mating surfaces of the flat bars. Later, I'd learn I could simply lay wax paper where needed, and get out of a few time-consuming steps, attaching, and tearing free wax paper, before, and after each glue-up.
I did my glue-ups at the end of each day's work, and left them all each to dry overnight. The bonds are incredibly strong with the wood glue + biscuit joints.
