Good luck with it Jimbo. Be prepared. The build will be on your mind first thing in the morning and last thing at night, every day until it's
built.

clear space, then clear some more.
Space is the best thing whilst building, I have done mine in a very narrow single garage and its painful.

also dont rush to get the bodywork on (as i did)
you end up scratching it or not being able to get to bits i.e. the pedals
all the best with the build

you wont sleep much the night before (I know I certainly didnt).
as has been said, clear space. you wont realise how much you actually need until you get it back and realise you havent got room to put everything in.
We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

Yup, it will eat your mind, I still have random sleepless nights because I get too far into considering how I'm gonna do something.
