Any one here made their own kitchen cabinets?

Not a match for what the OP is looking for, but thought worth mentioning two kitchen cabinet brands I assembled and was very happy with.

Mills Pride sold at Home Depot (not sure they are still in business), and Ikea. Both offered many sizes to fit most kitchens.

When I assembled the Ikea cabinets- I didn't follow the instructions. The Ikea instructions allows an assembler to make a mistake and recover. This design is at the expense of strength. I glued and clamped the Ikea cabinets. No turning back if I assembled the cabinet wrong- but in the end a super strong/ solid cabinet. And very customizable and affordable.

Thank you for the compliment. Me as a person and my attitude and outlooks kind of put me in a corner of DIY.
I am picky and want things done right and wont settle for good enough or what passes for quality work these days. I saw what professionals did and it was impressive but I cant afford to pay professionals what they are worth. (no not you home depot rando, sit back down, having no clue and some tools doesn't make you a contractor).
So I am at a place in my life where I want certain things certain way and I have to do it myself or pay a contractor what I originally bought my house for.
Im not stupid and both my uncle and grandpa have wood working in their blood. I grew up with the sound of a table saw and had to be a 2nd pair of hands for my grandpa since I can remember.
I can get something affordable and be unhappy or I can try to make it myself and be very happy. Yes I may have to start over multiple times, yes I will make mistakes.
I spend too much time in the kitchen to stare at reconstituted ikea cardboard painted in hospital white.

I appreciate the desire to jump in. There are quality cabinets available. Here are 2 mfg. Just shop it and get a quote as a data point. You also will get a layout you could use as a starting point to build your own.
