So I'm building a frame (mahogany) and panel (QS White Oak) tack trunk. My original thought was to miter the corners, but I have decided against it. My current thoughts are to rabbet with a corner block. The 4 sides are complete, now I need to figure out how to assemble them.
Here is a link to a sketchup of my proposed design:

Here's an image of the corner for those without Sketchup:

Is the joint strong enough as is? Is the corner block necessary?
Thanks!
