Melamine is cheap, looks pretty good, and holds in humidity fairly well.
It's gonna be kinda hard unless you have a barn full of woodworking tools like me :)

What kind of tools would i need? and how much do you think it all would cost? (supplies not tools haha)
sorry for all the questions >_<

If you search through this forum you will get a ton of good Idea's. What you need will depend on what you want to build.
