Default router help for a novice


A few years ago I bought a used Crafstman router and table with the best
of intentions. Never used one. Well, I am very busy with two careers, so
it has sat unused.

So now I am building something that I can use it for. It is basically a
small four-sided cabinet (top, bottom, two sides, no front or back) to
house a guitar amplifier. Roughly 17w x 6h x 11d. I would like to round
off the outer lengths and corners.

What I am wondering is, do I need to take the wood off in small
increments, getting larger every time? Or should I set the router to do
the full profile cut one time through? I am using poplar. Also, is it
best to do each board before, or run the whole cabinet after assembly?

Thanks very much,
MK
