My concern is that if I use T-88, the clamping pressure from making the 
radius in the jig will force all the glue out and starve the joint, making 
T-88 not reusable.

Any suggestions>?

I use it all the time on wood-to-wood since Veeduber expressed his views. 
It is great stuff, particularly for your intended purpose, as it requires 
substantial clamping pressure.  The down side is that the surfaces must be a 
good fit with no gap.  Any gap becomes filled with foam that has little or 
no strength.  Bonus is that the squeeze-out is a breeze to clean with a 
sharp knife (or old hack-saw blade)and no trying to guess how much to mix, 
just apply and bond.

>From my research, the best results were obtained by applying to both 
surfaces, rubbing together and leaving the joint open for a few minutes - 
just until it starts to foam.  Use half of what you expect to use, like a 
thin smear on each surface.  Clamping (curing) time is shortened by 
available moisture in the air - some instructions go so far as to suggest 
wetting one surface.  I have not tried that.
