use a clamp, Luke! There is a "quick clamp" you can
get at most wood working tool places, if the area is
that small, even a regular c-clamp should do.
I have found liquid nails is pretty
good, as well. good luck to ya!

Welder's clamps are wonderful, especially if you are only built with two
hands.
They come in a variety of sizes and a variety of tips, from really fine,
pointed ends to broad flat ones. You can buy them at most Lowe's, Home
Depot, etc, but if you have a welder's supply place nearby, they'll be a lot
cheaper.

Libby,
Liquid Nails really doesn't require all that much pressure, but I agree that
a quick clamp would be great. Just don't clamp TOO hard or you'll crack your
work.
