Sounds like your fence is not square and the box is pulling into it away from the fence. Or could be a bendy fence

There are a few good threads about this if you have a bit of a search

I made something similar to this https://www.diymontreal.com/miter-saw-dust-collection/ The sliding doors work well with changing the angle of the saw. I have a LVHP on the back of the saw and an HVLP into the cabinet

I would caution against pocket holes in either 12mm ply or any osb. At 12mm you don’t have much material to screw into. Pockets in osb can be quite weak as the material properties are stacked against you

Would be good to hear how some feedback on how it works. What are you doing for extraction at the crown guard?

My table saw is reasonably good for the money. I think you get what you pay for
