Probably a lot cheaper to buy one than to buy the material. Even if
you figure your labor at $1 an hour, automation can beat it. Think
insulated steel. maintenance free
OTOH, if you want a fancy showpiece with natural wood, custom
carving
on the panels, etc, go for it.
Running the numbers, I'm inclined to agree with you. The only way it
makes any kind of economic sense is if I go the jummywood and masonite
route and even there it's close to the price of an installed steel
door.
Cost of my labor doesn't enter into it. On the other hand finding the
time to do it . . .
