The easiest way to assemble is to start at the bottom and work your way up.  First, glue the box together, and attach the plaque using the score line as a guide.  Next, glue the 2 base pieces onto the box using the score lines for placement.  Now, glue each leg in the slots making sure the smaller side in on the bottom.  The bottom of the cup is next.  Start with 1 slot and work your way around adjusting the legs to fit into each slot.  For the cup panels, make sure you glue the engraved piece in the front to line up with the engraved plaque.  Also, make sure the panels with the slots are on each side as shown in the picture.  Glue on all the panels.  Glue on the top of the cup the same way as the bottom.  Start with 1 slot and work your way around adjusting the panels as you go to fit into each slot.  Last, glue the handles in place.  Finish with a clear coat or polyurethane of choice.
