For the cabinet frame I ordered all parts direct from 8020.net. Despite all the customization, it shipped in less than 1 month. This was complete pre-cut, tapped, bored aluminum set for the framing. You don't have to do anything but assemble with the anchor fasteners. If you'd like a copy of my order sheet email me at dadsvanblog at gmail dot com:
