Step 6Assemble the box
i marked all of my side pieceswith a line 3/8" in from the edge. i marked that line 1" in on each side. these are my screw marks. the finished piece looks nicer when all of the screws are in the same spot.
i predrilled these marks with a tiny drill bit so that i had a starting point. then i set the box pieces on edge, lined the corners up tight and predrilled again into the "receiving" piece. i'm sure that there's a better way to explain this. hopefully the pictures help. once i had a hole drilled, i'd drive a screw in. i would only predrill and screw one hole at a time to make sure that the joint was tight.
once you go through that process a few times, you'll end up with the box frames!
