[QUOTE="bjfish11, post: 3462436, member: 562873"] Wood glue is a must. Like req said, it is actually made to bond wood, so why would you use anything else? Predrill and coutersink IMO, a router is one of the best tools you can have. It has the ability to do so many different things... cut holes, roundover port edges (or edges of box), rabbet and grooves (like in my carpeting tutorial), make perfect patterns/edges (flush trim bit), and much more really. But I would say that most important thing you can do to build a good box, is slow down and take your time. If you are rushing through it, you will not have as good of results. Take your time when making your cuts, predrilling, and when lining up your edges. Patience will help you build a much nicer enclosure. [/QUOTE]
