Sounds like that might be it. For me, it's more convenient to do
the face frame first, then two sides, then the bottom, then the
back. Each step gives me a chance to make sure nothing is getting out
of whack. Also, if nothing else, it's easier to attach the faceframe to
the sides and bottom when you don't have to crawl inside the cabinet to
reach the screws.?

Now that's a very good point, Dave. I've been primarily a biscuit and dowel
user and am just getting into playing with my Kreg outfit. Accessing the
screws easily would be a consideration.

I'm not saying it's a showstopper, don't get me wrong. I just started
doing it that way, because that's how I saw it done, and so on. To
me, it makes sense, but I can see how other than access, it wouldn't
make that much difference.

Then again, having one active glue joint at a time is preferable
to a whole face-frame slipping around.
