As posted above, for your needs and power level its overkill and not needed. If you are still concerned, just buy an Art Morrison frame with modern A-arms and suspension and be done. Some things just aren't DIY friendly. Just because you take a class and buy the tools doesn't mean your qualified to use them, it usually just gives you a false sense of accomplishment. It still takes years of experience along with that to become competent.
