Damn putty seems to have expanded.

I wouldn't say glue is "all you need". You need a very nicely made JOINT, PLUS glue. Glue is only half of the equation.
For 95% of us... it is far easier to glue and staple/screw strips on the inside of the cabinet. I do a fair amount of woodworking and I wouldn't consider making anything fancier.

Actually, if I were to say a blanket statement about fastening, I would have to say Duct Tape is all you need!
I dare anyone to disagree!!!
:P

I once saw military grade duct tape used to hold the front end of a hummer, that was half torn off from a land mine, together for over 50 miles through rough desert terrain at 60mph+ without giving out. Seen it used as bandages, boot repairs, patch holes in airplanes (don't ask), I saw a guy tape one strip to one side of a door and one to another letting it meet in the middle, used that as a hinge for the door (normal heavy wood door) for months... That stuff is amazing and one of the more usefull things that the military invented.

That duct tape is definitely strong stuff. They hold damaged panels in place on the Australian V8 supercars and these do close on 300km/h.
Putty update.
Recent coats of sealer have now been on 2 days and no imperfections are noticeable as yet.....

The gorilla Glue people have expanded their product line and are now offering "Gorilla Tape".
Give the stuff props for *sticking* to a brick.
