I Built An Expensive Home Depot Vanity For $300

What happens here

Apply wood glue to the mating edges of the plywood panels. Use clamps to hold the pieces tightly together while driving pocket hole screws. First, attach the side panels to the bottom panel. Then, secure the top stretchers to the side panels, ensuring the overall width of the vanity is consistent (e.g., 36 inches). Regularly check for squareness during assembly to prevent issues with drawer fit later on.

Goal: Construct the main rectangular box of the vanity by joining the bottom, side panels, and top stretchers using glue, clamps, and pocket hole screws, ensuring squareness and stability.

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
