Ok I got it now I think. I lay the bottom down, than put a beed on the sides and push the side glasses on. Than I run a beed along the front bottom and the front edges of the side pieces and push the front glass on. Then do the same for the back and apply even pressure all around with clicker straps. Wait 24 hours, than put a beed inside all around and let cure for 72 hours. After that I do the eurobracing, let that cure, and do water test and hope for the best. How does that sound.

I have seen people put masking tape on the glass, is this a good idea. How wide should the inside beed be. I was thinking at least 1/4 wide, so about 1/8 on each glass being joined. Should the silicone be aplyed wider on the inside?
