What happens here
Cut pieces for the drawer boxes. The drawer boxes will be assembled using a simple butt joint technique with wood glue and 2-inch brad nails. Apply wood glue to the edges and spread it evenly before joining. Use a brad nailer to secure the pieces, with the nails acting as temporary clamps while the glue dries. Repeat the process for all required drawer boxes.
Goal: Construct the interior drawer boxes
