Fuck off

I actually did something similar to what you are trying to do for my first wood working project-pic related. I didn't use glue (although it wouldn't hurt) just the corner braces. Use self-drilling screws, fuck pilot holes, and make sure the screws are the appropriate size for the brace and wood thickness you are using (e.g. #8 5/8, #10 3/4 or whatever). You can try doing it this way >>1542842 but it is a lot harder than it looks and very easy to fuck up, not to mention it is nowhere near as strong as using corner braces.

I made mine out 3/4 pine and I don't know you you are planning on putting a back panel. If you are I recommend the panel be at least 1/4 plywood. This is going to make it stupidly rigid. If you aren't I would use hardwood or thicker pine and make damn sure the outside corners are solid. Make sure your marks are accurate and your cuts are as straight as possible. A 12 inch rafter square works wonders here
