    if I understand correctly, then something like these might help. They are not too extensive (here in Germany at least) and we used them to press baseboards to the walls while drying, as well as helping keep plasterboards up while constructing ceilings.

      that would be super helpful, omg - I didn’t even know something like this existed! thank you!!

      The only downside is that I do hate buying specialty tools like this - even if it’s useful for that one purpose … I wonder if there is a way to rig my own version of this tool with what I have on hand … you know, I have a security device you place under a door-knob that is adjustable like this and could maybe be used that way …

      Either way, hopefully I won’t need it - I ended up just caulking the gap even though I would have preferred to re-glue the top of the baseboard flush. Alas, I live in the U.S., our standards are lower than in Germany 😉
