What happens here

Select one of the smaller plywood pieces that will act as an internal divider. Mark the approximate center of one end of this piece and use a cordless drill with a drill bit to create a hole through it. This hole could serve various purposes, such as assisting in pulling out a divider or for hanging. Subsequently, dry-fit the dado-cut plywood piece (which forms the bottom or back panel) with the two 3-inch wide end pieces that were cut earlier. This step ensures all components fit together correctly before final assembly.

Goal: Drill a hole in a divider and assemble the main base components.
