+* First glue the top onto two sides, as shown below.  **However, don't glue the bottom on -- the bottom will remain loose, at least for now, while you test your RaspiDrum.**  However, you should insert the bottom piece on, even while gluing the other sides, so that the bottom will later fit snugly on.  It's helpful to use Dewalt clamps (or other carpenter's clamps) if they are available.
