Hi Gary and good luck.

I would strongly recommend you invest a few hours here before you get to much further and look at the wonderful discussions and diaries.

Lots of potential problems can be stopped at source with stuff already learnt by many others.

Ditto, the info and help you can get on this forum is priceless and the build diaries and photos are a constant source of inspiration on those more challenging days.
Happy building
