Whole lot of work that somebody with the proper setup can produce for the same price you'd pay for the raw materials. MFC is the choice of almost all in the industry.
I'd suggest you focus your time and effort on the elements that will be on show.
We use a company called Handcraft in Thrapston, they'll make anything in any size in any available board colour from either Egger or Kronospan. I'm sure there will be somebody local to your area. Check out their site it will give you a window on what a good carcass manufacturer will provide, personally I think they are exceptional and if I was going to make my own kitchen I wouldn't dream of making my own carcasses. Having said that they are only boxes after all and not much of a challenge to knock up.

Teckel is probably referring to Steve Maskerys query about protecting the edges of carcases - a face frame covers the edge of the carcase - however this has nothing to do with the OP's question - Steve should have really started a new thread rather than hijack this one.
