I put my vote in for the router.  It makes perfect edges around angles such as the monitor area.  I know it's dusty, but how many of these do you plan on making?  I believe it to be the highest quality tool for making the sides.

kiddk1:

thanks, I have all 3 a router, circular saw and jig saw.  I think I will go with the circular and jig based on what you have explained.

Tahnok:

If you have all 3, use them all. Surely you have used them before. You know the tools strengths and weaknesses; use them accordingly. There is really no right or wrong way to build a cabinet as long as you come out with the same thing.

Unless you lose something else along the way...like a finger.

Tahnok:

Wrong way to build a cabinet, no. Wrong way to use tools, yes. Like I said, you have to know when to use which tools.
