Same as Tim. Start in the middle and work the puddle out to the edges of the hole. It's really kinda fun when you getit working well.
Use anything you can to get pressure pushing the pieces together. I used 2X4's (lots of trips to the chop saw). Also start at one side or end and tack it down, then move away to another area and tack it down then come back and do some more, then back to the second area. Kinda like torquing something down.
