I was reattaching a 60’s J50 pickguard using double sided tape and got the idea to stick a couple of handles on it for positioning. Worked really well to get it perfectly aligned before pressing down.

Clamped it up with a caul after.

That's a great idea Terence, especially with irregular shapes that can't easily be aligned with the usual tape method! Thanks for sharing.
