Terrific idea for a scratchbuild project. Are you going with the black or blue cabinet? (I vote blue!)

Suggestion on bending the wireforms, just use a pliers with some painter's tape wrapped around the edges so you don't dig into the metal. That jig will give you very "soft" bends with too large a corner radius. I've made several wireforms using pliers and never had a problem, and the corners look exactly like the originals.
