worry more about building it then covering it right now. if you have access to a brad nailer that would make it a lot easier

But a brad nailer won't help pull the wood together if his cuts are a little off.

For a first box, I would suggest sticking with screws.

 
My pops will be helping, he is a handy man..Brad nailer?

it's basically a nail gun you hook to an air compressor and it shoots tiny nails. when building a box, the wood glue is strong enough to hold the enclosure together. the screws just hold the wood in place until the glue dries
