What happens here

Identify the edges of the plywood panels that will be joined. For assembling the cabinet carcasses using confirmat screws, mark the locations for pilot holes along the edges of the panels that will receive the screws. Use a drill with a specialized step drill bit designed for confirmat screws to create pilot holes. These holes ensure that the screws drive straight and prevent the wood from splitting, especially critical in plywood layers.

Goal: Prepare the mating edges of the plywood panels by drilling appropriate pilot holes for confirmat screws, ensuring proper alignment for a strong joint.
