50k for kitchen kabinet is overkill liao...
If you got concrete liao then cheaper ..
Market rate for base kabinet 168/sqft , top 135/sqft melamine.
For aluminum more expensive of coz.

for carpentry, not so good cos very soft. need alot of woodworking techniques to make it stable as chair or cabinet.

for dining table slabs, yea good value (cos its 4-5k and give you thick thick 3-3.5inch above to avoid the mentioned soft wood issue) ,
cos if use merbau cengal, will cost 8-10k liao, and usually 2inches thickness.. cos 2inch also very strong liao.

Yeah. Piping isnt that expensive. Im using buteline polypipe. Not copper for hot/cold water. That would be expensive for the whole house.

wah this one scared, cos at joint part may leak...gotta hack out the hidden area just to do replacement if its leaking at joints. if the piping part..yea its very solid.
