ToolBox Machining Sides/ Top and Bottom

Crosscutting sides must be done 90 degrees to grooves.
The Miter saw will work, after all, Rodrigo set it up yesterday... Right Rolly?

The Depth Stop must be set on the Miter saw so we don't cut through the MDF Fence!

 

After squaring off one end, A stop block is set up to cross cut both sides to 9 1/4"

But Rolly had to adjust his width to 9 5/16", so he made himself a spacer block to remember and help set up the stop block accordingly. 

A dry fit reveals any discrepancy with our machining. Now we can rip (a little less than 9 1/4") and crosscut (a little less than 19 1/4") our Top, Middle and Bottom. It also helps layout the rebates needed.

Perhaps some adjustments are needed

There, a dry fit tells all. 

Wait! Why is there a strip of Oak laminated on the inside of this box?

Don't forget to sand the inside 120 grit then 150 grit before dry assembly and Glue up.
