See here for how I have done it.

Instead of nothing around the leg I glued a side piece on the drawer
support. You can see the dado in the back which holds the tenon of the
drawer support/guide. They are half-lapped and sit in a rabbet on the
lower drawer rail.

Thanks Stout. That method would also make it easier to set the dust panels
vs. placing them into dado's. As well, it would facilitate easier
placement of the drawer supports vs. ensuring my mortise/tenons are in their
exact place. At this point, I've got enough of an idea to at least purchase
the materials and I'll start refining the design then. Thanks for all the
help. Thanks for the picture.....those definitely help! Hey, if it's
any consolation, my garage, er shop looks worse than yours!
Cheers,
