You can try at a hardware shop that selling built in cabinet material at Jalan Besar Ampang. it juz beside the main road。 I have bought a 4' x 8' formica board thr before.

WARNING: prepare bandages and gloves if u really want to DIY

i just want to say, our ABS is done by machine, but not done by worker hand, we put the chipboard into a machine, then the machine will doing the work to stick and trim the width to fit the chipboard tickness, and doing champer cutting at the end.
Will you able to do it DIY? even the answer is yes, but i dont think is easy, unless you think nice or not is not a issue for you.
