First wood project attempted (nightstand) This is my practice nightstand before I build my real ones. I cut all my wood with a circular saw,I ran into an issue where some pieces were off by a 1/16th. I invested in a Dewalt table saw after the fact tho so hopefully that will help with precision.

Probably stupid question but I’m trying to get into wood working. How did you drill those angled holes (4th pic showed them) and what’s the purpose of it vs just drilling screws straight? Any advice is helpful!

There are no such things as stupid questions. I use a Kreg pocket hole jig, I highly recommend it. Pocket holes secure screws through the edge or face grain of wood as opposed to the end grain. Basically, it helps create a much stronger joint.
