My wife wanted me to try the blum slides. It's the first time I've used them. I usually do traditional flush drawers with more of a landing platform for the drawers. However, this is a dresser that will see a lot more drawer use than my other items.

On the pocket screws, I have done this in the past. One of my hangups is using M&T on two sides of a leg. I worry about punching through and weakening it, especially with smaller legs like that. I know there are ways to prevent that, but I am not that good yet.  I am also more confident in my ability with the side panel method used as I have done that style on a smaller scale before.

On the drawer dividers, I used dowels with pocket screws to keep the alignment in place. I really liked how that worked out, so I will likely use dowels in addition to where I use pocket holes in the future. The measuring any layout takes some time, but it forces everything into the correct position when assembled.
