Custom frame and suspension

So I've been rolling the idea around do building my own tube frame and custom front suspension. Has anyone undertaken this at all and any suggestions on how to go about starting on this?

Re: Custom frame and suspension

Yeah been meaning to check out his work. I saw the frame he did for the tootsie build and was blown away. Don't think I have that kind of budget
