How to build QUARRY from the tiles

DIS · TO · RTS · BE · DRO · CK · QUA · RRY · LIT · TER · MA · TE · BIL · LO · WED · POR · CI · NE · CA · VED

QUARRY is built by combining the tiles QUA · RRY in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in QUARRY early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
