I Built An Expensive Home Depot Vanity For $300

What happens here

The bottom and side plywood pieces are joined together. Wood glue is applied to the edges, and the pieces are held in place with clamps (Kreg face clamps are shown) while pocket hole screws are driven in with a cordless drill, creating a sturdy box structure. The presenter checks the width with a tape measure to ensure it matches the 36-inch target. He then identifies a mistake in cutting the internal divider pieces.

Goal: The main box of the vanity carcass is assembled by attaching the side pieces to the bottom using wood glue and pocket hole screws.

oh this is the wrong one and the reason it's the wrong one is cuz I pre-planned ahead and put one of the stretchers to pocket holes for the face frame almost caught myself there so we need the sucker to be 36 in beautiful it's actually 35 and 7/8 the reason why is uh the vanity for that space should only be 36 in wide so we're we're so far we're on point nothing bad Hasen happened yet yet knock on that wood stick around okay everything looks good I need two dividers going vertically because based off those plans there's uh drawers on the sides and a drawer down below that'll give me some meat on the bones when attaching those drawer
