Make a ton of money (e.g. trading stocks)
In parallel, approach a lot of construction companies to ask them to make a factory given your specifications. You can outsource all sorts of parts to multiple companies, such that no one company can piece together the full picture and so that you have redundancy.
The factory could be a nanobot (or some equivalently powerful) factory.
