again, i was not the first person to think of this, but i feel it's a good compromise so i'll pass it on. if you must use a suicide hub then consider putting the drive train on the left hand side. the advantage to this is that if your cog does come loose, it will be on a hard acceleration, and you can "coast" until it tightens up and you can safely stop the bike.
as far as construction, everything's pretty much the same, only you put the rear wheel on backwards, and the cranks on reverse. unscrew the pedals and put some blue loctite on the threads, because they're threaded to be ridden the other way around, and check every once in awhile that they're not coming unscrewed. that's it, a (slightly) safer suicide conversion.
EDIT: still think it's a bad idea.
EDIT2: if you're going to rely on your front brake to stop, put a back one on as well. brakes crap out.
