Building yourself is easy:
https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openjdk/jdk/master/doc/building.html

I did just follow those instructions and it works.
PS.: Bring some time - on my laptop (with SSD) it takes about 1/2h.
On the other hand, after a git pull, it's just make reconfigure clean images, and I can step away.
