Close when the glue has been applied and the masking tape will supply all the clamping pressure you need. You do need to weight the top down flat when doing this of course.
Thanks--the clamps are just holding boards on top of the joint to keep the plates flat. I'm clamp deprived.

I do like the tape trick--will try with the top!
