I DIYed this entire kitchen as a series of smaller DIY projects. I got the Samsung appliances from Home Depot and the plywood from Columbia forest products. You don't need a lot of tools to DIY a kitchen and while I used a framing nailer on building the walls you can do it with a drill and screws. I used a table saw for the French cleats but most of all the cutting can be done with a circular saw.

Kitchen Links and Notes:
Walnut Veneer Europly from Columbia Forest Products
I order this from my local lumberyard and it is both expensive and worth it. It is stronger than typical plywood so I can use less and I love the edges
Rubio Monocoat
This is also expensive but worth it. It saves time because its can go on fast and you are not standing there with a brush for hours trying to even it out. I love this stuff!
