Thanks!

When you say 'glued into slots,' are these slots that are built up from wood
shims, or are they chiseled into the side panels...? Maybe they are cut into
the side panel with a router, and then the beams are glued and hammered
until they 'pop' into place...? Am I over-thinking this?

If you could take a close look tonight, I'd appreciate it. I was looking on
the web for photos, but the photos people take show more of wiring
harnesses, modules, etc. and not so much the wood cabinet joinery and the
wooden exteriors.

The main horizontal beam on a Moog lower cabinet is glued into slots on each
side.
I'll have to check if it is visible. There is one brace in the middle of
the beam
connecting to the bottom of the cabinet. This evening I can send out one of
the
pics I took showing the flat rails that also shows the joint at the side of
the
cabinet.
