I'm actually about $500 into a "from scratch" project and it's still not done (I had to put it on the backburner when I left BC).
What I suggest is start off with a basegun and customize that. It's easier to have a "3D instruction guide" than it is to build off a bunch of parts.
Don't mix and match upgrade parts and find things you like.
So for example my custom AR15 is something unique that I like, it's a varminter/match rifle. I've got an 18" "Stainless Steel" barrel (aluminum with a "steel finish") with a Bushmaster "Varminter" handguard. It looks really cool. And for the rear I've got a skeleton style stock on it.
