If you pre-drill the holes with a drill bit a size smaller than your screws, you will not split the wood or strip the screw heads.


This was done. Screw heads still stripped.

Like OP said, get the right tools and watch YouTube. Be surprised what you can do.

Good lord. Your gf fill your sippy cup up with milk for you?

Use a fricking screwdriver next time and buy better screws. Use the advice someone else posted about pre-drilling the holes, too. Carpentry takes patience. Funny thing is, unless you throw a tantrum and bust shite up, you can almost always easily fix things like this when you make a mistake.

Did you drink a beer before you started ? You should know you can't build anything without beer. Hell , I've known that for 50 years.

If it makes you feel any better, you got 75% further than I would have gotten.
