I like to use Titebond II wood glue, and the GE Premium clear silicone. That's mainly off the information I got from this board.

Just make sure you check your measurement twice. Also, if you don't have a table saw (like me) this will make your life eaiser:

Screws it its! Do the plans look ok? I did some search and that came up for 1 Type R 12" I think!

make sure you pre-drill. do you have clamps or is someone gonna hold the pieces together for you? what i used to do when i used screws was get 2 drills, and then my cordless which doesn't have a lot of balls would be used for the pilot hole, then i get the electric one to drive the screws in. also you could use gorrilla glue if your cuts aren't totally accurate.

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

clamps + glue

I 2nd the brad nailer.

clamps + glue

Not everybody has big enough clamps, or the //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/greedy.gif.5a53e6246569d7ab79867170f3b06629.gif to go buy as many as necessary.

But almost everybody has a drill and some drill bits //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
