Here's how I set up the first cut of the drawer front rabbet using both the fence and miter gauge.

Generally it's not a good idea to use both at the same time, or the cut can bind. But if you put a piece of scrap wood against the fence behind the saw's blade slot, it can act as a length stop for your material in the miter gauge, But when the gauge is pushed forward the work is clear of the scrap block at the cutting edge, so doesn't bind.

Checking the fit of the pieces before gluing:

And glued and fastened together. They work fine, and I didn't cut anything short (unusual!), so tomorrow, on to the other 12!
