Google/e-bay on structure cabling, patch panels - $100 roughly, nice switches - $100-300 or more. The more expensive are managed and are better: For example Surecom Switch 24Port10/100 & 2Port10/100/1000, EP-726DG-L, Management is a good one. It costs about 300usd in my country. Check other options from lower classes - pure 10/100mbit managed switches and other vendors also.
Pick several kinds of colour duck tape to mark the cables so that you can recognize them easily in the panel and a stand from Home Depot to put the boxes on. If you have place for the boxes, spent the rest of your budget on beverages of your taste. You will need them during your network setup.
Enjoy!

If you're new to cable management, remember to tag both ends of the cables BEFORE running them through any conduit. Once they get bundled together in any way, that's all you have to go by.
