    I have started undersizing my braces a bit and using expanding glue such as gorilla glue to hold everything in place - through i am not sure if it helps or not. Else I find my braces to trhow everything out of whack.

    Did not understand the "Roll the brace up like a burrito" part @DanP

    When doing cabinets this way, it works very well to lay out the 4 boards knife edge to knife edge, then apply tape to the seams while the panels are laid flat. Then you can "roll up" the panels into each other after applying glue. The brace can be added into the loose dado prior to rolling the panels like some guac in a burrito 😁

    Lay panels flat with tape on mitres, set in brace, and wrap sides around the brace.
    Edit: sorry, didn't see the second page answer.
