Custom builds where to start?

How do you guys do custom builds? I want to do a custom build but don't know what order to do things. Do I get fit from shop first so I know what components to buy? Some parts will come off old bike and others I'll be buying off eBay. I can't afford to pay full LBS prices on everything. Or do I build bike to match old bike as best as I can and then get a fitting to make small adjustments and switch out a stem or seatpost as needed? I will be starting off with the frame and I know what size fits me. So what I'm worried about is filling everything in from there.
