Keith:  Years of experience with student helpers -- staples hold better,
brads are less likely to blow out the side of the wood, especially with an
inexperienced operator.  Best thing, build a jig to keep parts aligned and
keep the nail/staple gun square to the frame and centered.  As per glue,
you need to use a water-resistant glue.  Standard issue carpenter's
white/yellow glue is worthless in the humid environs of a beehive.  Lots of
people use "glue", but using the wrong one is a waste of time and money.
