I laughed, I cried, I will get paid. Learned too much. Drank from the fire hose a bit too much.

I just bought the veneered panels pre banded from a cabinet CNC shop. It's a pretty repetitive pattern. Looks better on doors and 24 inch panels than it does on the huge 42" cabinet (in my opinion). The 42" cab was a pain. I bought and used a locking miter on it. Pushing that vertically thru my shaper by myself was a task. The joinery is far from perfect, but at that size, I'm just happy it looks good at all.

I didn't do the countertop. But I think it's quartz and it has a really rough top. The L piece against the wall is one big piece. So the joint is hard to see from this angle because it's the furthest joint away in the photo. The did a good job.

Yep, that would be a challenge if you work alone. Congratulations on seeing it through. I'm sure there were a few moments when it seemed like you had bit off far too much.

Do you get free coffee now at that shop?
