First Timer - frame set and product "okay-ing"

Hey ya'll!

This is a bit of a funny one, but I'm going to attempt my first frame build, and before everyone smashes me for not having plans already drawn up for sizes, angles, length, etc... I'd still like to purchase the tube sets and plan while waiting for them to arrive. I'm sort of a learn by mistake type guy anyways...

I know this isn't exactly the most kosher way of asking for the grand "yes you got the right stuff", but if I literally posted links to what I'm intending on buying, would anyone or someone feel comfortable giving the yes or no to what i'm getting?

If anyone finds this inappropriate, let me know please and I'll pull down this post.

So I plan on buying two sets, both of which will be single speed to begin with, hence the lack of braze-ons. I may consider making one a geared bike and adding the appropriate cable stops later.

Tube Set 1:http://bit.ly/1c2zwpV
Seat Stay Caps:http://bit.ly/1kIpRnM x 2
Dropouts:http://bit.ly/1c2zCOh x 2
Seat Stay Break Bridge:http://bit.ly/1ecsws9
Chain Stay Bridge: Intend on buying tube from hardware shop and brazing on myself.


Tube Set 2:http://bit.ly/1bEtQQa
Seat Stay Caps: http://bit.ly/1bEtUzq x 2
Dropouts, SS Bridge, CS Bridge are same as above.

Does this all make sense and seem congruent?

Huge thanks in advanced for whoever takes their time to look at these links and give their opinions.
Everyone in this forum group has been amazingly supportive considering the amount of nonsense questions i've already asked.

Thanks again!
