Out of all of it, the hardest was doing the curved portions where it bends for the doors.
Harder than that was the front ones where I had to get small indent for the hinge to fit and keep the bolt hole lined up. This ended up being 3 pieces that I shaped and then welded together w/ lots of grinding and rewelding. I found (the hard way a couple times) it was easier to make pieces and weld together than trying to make it out of a whole piece. I made tons of cardboard mock-ups (all the desktop calendars at work don't have cardboard backs anymore).
