Tme mate. It take AGES to carpeneter it all up.

I reckon a local carpenter with a decent workshop could dimension and
fit 20 panels of chipboard in about a week. I reckon it would take me
about four weeks (i.e. without a decent workshop).

Not that I used chipboard though! (I used proper wood.)

Solid wood carcases ?

WOW !

Or perhaps you used a different man made board, like ply. Total
overkill if you did.

Chipboard is a perfect material for the manufacture of kitchen
carcases, Flat, stable, ready dimensioned, easily machined etc.

It is much maligned due to its inappropriate use and by those who
like to demonstrate their ignorance.

Incidentally carpenters don't make kitchen cabinets. They don't have
the equipment or the experience. Their function is generally totally
different and all the more valuable when put to the correct use.
