If you're going to use one or more draw pegs to
hold a M&T joint together without the use
of glue
CHAMFER THE END OF THE PEG
AND
CHAMFER THE HOLE IN THE TENON

Sorry for yelling but I wanted to get
your attention. By chamfering the
end of the peg and the the hole they'll
self align Rather than SPLITTING!
DAMHKT.

I used draw pegs on the M&T joints
on the base drawer unit to legs joints
just in case I ever need to dismantle
this beast for any reason. Nice
to have reversible joinery - sliding
dovetails are also neat to use - just
in case.
