I built two clamping bands out of 10 ft. 2x4s to go around the camper. When I put the material in place, I put a sheet of plywood over it to cover the area being glued, then a couple of 2x4 on top of the plywood to distribute pressure and clamped it to the camper with Erwin hand clamps between the clamping bands and the 2xs on the plywood.
That's a neat idea. It occurs to me that one could probably rig up something similar with a few ratchet straps (and plywood and whatnot). Either one sounds a lot easier to manage than the profusion of props against the ground or a wall or something that I likely would have come up with on my own for this sort of repair.
