7. Select minimum (under current object) & maximum (under target object), select Y position.
8. Select maximum (under current object) & maximum (under target object), select X position.

| Top View |
9. Deselect the ticks of X position, Y position and Z position.
10. Select maximum (under current object) & maximum (under target object), select Y position.
11. Select the Box002 from top view, press shift and move it to the left-hand side.
12. Select copy, click ok.
13. Like just now, align the position of it.
14. Select minimum (under current object) & minimum (under target object), select X position.
11. Select the Box001 from front view, press shift and move it upward.
12. Select copy, click ok.
13. Like just now, align the position of it.
14. Select minimum (under current object) & maximum (under target object), select Y position.
15. Select the Box001 from front view, press shift and move it upward.
16. Change its length(39), width34) and height(1.25).
17. Align position.
18. Select maximum (under current object) & minimum (under target object), select Y position.
19. Right click the select&move tool (red box in screenshot), change the Y on right-hand side to -34.
20. Copy Box005 and repeat the step 18 & step 19.
21. Repeat step 20 until the cupboard is completed! (≧▽≦)/
█ END RESULT █
|||||||||| PRACTICE : VERTEX ||||||||||
█ REFERENCE █
2. Click the select&move tool, you will see a yellow '+' when you mouse over a vertex,
3. Then, move it to the position that you want.
4. Select all and change the colour of it.
5. Group it together so you can copy the whole object easily. Move it by using the vertex and combine it to become a new design! (≧▽≦)/
In my opinion, I think this method is easier to align the position of the object.

█ REFERENCE █
1. First, I go Google find a blueprint of a car.
2. Next, I use Photoshop cut this blueprint into four views and save them as (front, back, top, side) separately.
*Cut it as accurate as possible.
3. Create a plane and change its size based on the image you cut just now.
4. Press SHIFT to copy the plane, change its size according to different views and rotate it to correct position.
5. Repeat this step until four views are done.
6. Go to Material Editor, click on Get Material (1).
7. Click Standard > Diffuse > Bitmap, then select your image.
8. Change the width and height according to your image. *Rotate if necessary.
9. Click Assign Material to Selection (2) and Show Shaded Material in Viewport (3).
10. Select the front and back view plan, right click, select Object Properties, choose By Layer, then click on Backface Cull. This is to make it looks transparent.
* If the size is not accurate, you can change its height manually.
