I've built a couple. Just finished a 7'9" 3wt Rainshadow blank. I'm super pleased with it. My advice would be to not cheap out on the cork and reel seat. Buy Struble!
You will have quite a few hours invested in the project and it's depressing when you get it all done to look at it and wish you had spent an extra $20 for premium components. (ask me how I know....I did that on my first build)
My favorite sources are muddhole.com and Hook & Hackle (hookhack.com)
