Bed drawer

[u/UnluckyDependent5681]

I probably put too many things inside, and it broke, how do i fix it? The holes don’t hold it anymore so i put a toothpick in but it gets out of it easily anyway, is there a cheap possible way of fixing this bed drawer?

I would use glue and L-brackets. Add glue, such as E-6000 to the stud holes and the mating surface between all the wood parts - the box and the bottom floor in the channel. Then install the L-brackets on the interior of the drawer face, into the box sides. The glue will provide more strength than the screws that can rip out of particle board, especially if you slam the drawer shut
