Assuming the boards are reasonably straight, I place a spring clamp across the edges of two boards to keep them alligned…then I draw the boards together with bar, pipe, or good ole Bessy K body clamps. I do allow for squeeze out but clean it off immediately with a wet rag. One word of caution, wait until the moisture completely dries before sanding. Shrinking grain can cause "valleys" to appear in the surface of the panel and the only way to rid yourself of those is to resurface the rest of the panel to match.
