Guys, I understand you can rack up reasons for costs, but simply put yourself in buyers shoes; would you be willing to pay 7-10k AUD for a simple cabinet like shown?

It just does not make sense. ...

I need to drill a 50mm deep 2 mm wide hole in 8mm wooden plank.

I only have a cordless drill. Could anyone suggest what would be the best way todo this?

Any experience with the dowel joints?
