How do you secure your boxes together?

[bumonskateboard6]

Just wanted to see what people here prefer when building boxes, and who's had the best results with each. I know the glue is what holds the box together, but while that's drying what do you prefer?

I've always used a brad nailer(and glue of course) and have never had anything come apart. I really want to try the spax screws on my next one though.

if you have enough clamps, and almost no one does, you dont need screws. but screws do make good clamps. if you do use nails you need to use a clamp 1st then nail rite next to it. a nail wont push the 2 boards together sufficiently.

x2 i always predrill and countersink when i use screws. ive got some bits that countersink for you that are amazing. using two drills helps too. predrill n screw on every hole and no worries.
