I dis like the sandwiching part also. I have 2 large folding tables that I set up to do the sandwiching on. use big clap(from Harbor freight or home depot) found a bag of 40 all sizes at Home depot for $5.00. anyway thats how I put mine together. can't crawl on the floor any more my knees won't allow that. To raise the height the bed risers work, not major bending over, found those at goodwill.
