There are some excellent points by Treeve and others about the investment needed just to do a build. You don't do a build like this to save money since the front end investment in tools will exceed your savings on a kit. And if you're inexperienced and don't have slave labor (kids) to help with many of the two-man portions, then you'll be way behind.

Buy someone elses unfinished kit and let us know how it goes.
