No you really dont. I use Liquid Nails glue and trust me, from personal experience, a glued joint will hold tighter than the wood itself,lol. The screws are only there to hold the peices together and tight until the glue dries.

shit on the elmers bottle , it claims the glue bonds tighter than the wood itself.

Yea thats true. I built a box one time and had to recut a new side peice for it. I had to literally take a hammer and flathead and chisel the old peice out where it was glued.

Glue>wood FTW

 
i did some test glueing with some scrap wood and i cant even get it apart.

my boy just game me some liquid nails too so i guess ima seal the inside with that tomorrow.

i just got the front panel left to glue so i think ima let it sit all day tomorrow so itll be set and ready for that beast of an 8". shits comming along good. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
