3/4” x 4’ x 8’ UV Prefinished Birch Plywood sold here in Tulsa for about $50 coated 1 side and about $65 2 sides. Considering the painting cost later this is a bargain.

The best way to go. All of my kitchen cabinetry is built this way. I also build my face frames off cabinet to allow for prefinishing. I attach with either biscuits and clamps or pocket screws. Don’t worry to fill the pocket screws, they look fine.
