yes


The board is cut off at the top because I thought that the side with the edge banding on the underside would better protect against moisture (and then I have the protection of the metal edge on top)


I only have a jigsaw right now, with which I can’t make a perfect straight 60cm cut. It might look bad if it becomes a bit wavy.

For now, I have temporarily clamped a 4mm item between the baseboard fastener (this semi-open clip) and the cabinet support. That way, there’s no step anymore between the drawer and the other baseboards. But the setup is a bit wobbly, and I would also need to clamp a 4mm part at the top and bottom of the baseboard so it can’t tilt forward and backward. Otherwise, the fastener holds fine with a 4mm item between the clip and the support.

There’s probably no other way?
- option described above
- omit aluminum plate
- attach the baseboard to the underside of the cabinet using an angle bracket

And what if you don't quite slam in the cut-outs where the base clips sit?

I thought about that too. But then the "little tab" doesn't stay firmly in place. It’s a bit wobbly, and I would need a spacer at the top and bottom of the skirting board again (where the skirting board usually rests on the corpus base (top and bottom), there is then also a gap of a few millimeters) ops:

If you look from the side, is the drawer pushed in all the way or what is resting against what?

the drawer is pushed all the way in. It rests at the top on the foot of the corpus stander and at the bottom there is about a 2mm gap at the foot. That means I still have to adjust the front to "straight" with the screwdriver.

The front cannot be adjusted in the tilt. You can only put something under the connecting bridge at the back. If that brings 2 mm and 2 mm for the sheet metal, then that would be the 4 mm.
