Sub Box Construction

I have just finished cutting all of the pieces of the box that I need. I was wondering if I should glue the parts togeter and then drill then screw them or should I drill then glue then screw?

Thanks

the screws have very little to do with holding the box together, sometimes they even bring down the structural integrity. they are merely clamps to help the glue set locked. if you had enough clamps of the proper size, you could very easily build a box with no screws whatsoever.
