Dead simple but very good improvement would be to firstly cut through holes in the top piece of wood THEN glue top & bottom and clean surplus glue before it sets. Forstner bits are fine but leave an ugly cenre guide hole. Alternatively make suitable jig(s) and cut flat bottomed holes with a ROUTER.
Thank you for your comment and excellent improvement idea and tips Andy, very much appreciated 👍 Now why didn't I think of that ... 'coz I ain't no chippy right? Every day's a learning day and who says you can't teach an old dog or crazy cat lady new tricks eh? Cheers and all the best 😉
