She's Been Asking Me to Build Her This Forever

What happens here

The drawer boxes are assembled. Pocket holes are drilled into the side pieces. Wood glue is applied, and the pieces are joined with pocket screws. The presenter acknowledges a mistake where some screws went through the plywood, emphasizing the need for careful screw length selection for thinner materials or using a dado stack for recessed joinery. After assembling the drawer boxes, full-extension drawer slides are installed into the vanity carcass and then attached to the completed drawer boxes.

Goal: Drawer boxes are constructed using pocket-hole joinery and then fitted with full-extension drawer slides for smooth operation.
