What happens here
Assemble the wider wood panels that will form the seat bases and potentially the solid side supports for the backrests. Apply wood glue generously to the edges of the planed and cut boards before joining them. Use pocket hole screws, driven with an impact driver, into the pre-drilled pocket holes to secure the panels. Apply clamps to hold the boards tightly together while the glue dries and screws are driven, ensuring a strong and seamless joint.
Goal: Construct flat, wide wood panels for the sectional's primary surfaces.
