Step 5Creating sub assemblies

Creating sub assemblies
There are 3 sub assemblies which should be completed before the final cabinet assembly. The front assembly consists of the front piece, the 2 front side pieces, and the brace. The back assembly consists of the back, the 2 back side pieces, and the back shelf. The notches on the back shelf should face towards the front. The monitor cabinet is made from the 2 long box sides, the 2 short box sides, the top long pieces and the top short pieces.

I didn't use any fasteners, just wood glue and clamps so far - the glue joints are pretty long and not under any major stresses. If you feel like you need stronger joints, you can just add square strips which will add glue area or you can screw into these pieces and avoid having to screw directly into the edge of the boards.
