Why don't people make graphics cards on their own?

You would need to be one of the best engineers in the world to design your own GPU from scratch. You would also need very expensive machinery and be able to process raw materials. There's also the issue of compatibility. Current games are built around AMD and Nvidia hardware and drivers. Whatever you are playing won't recognize your home made graphics card, and likely won't be able to run at all.
One thing, you are making these threads instead of doing it

A very good point! :D

Oh, and be sure to show us the results of your work !
How hard can it be to compete with an industry where nanometers are relevant?
If I possessed money, I would fund your video card company just to watch you flounder.
