When you mean building your own bicycle, what do you mean?
If you want to do it from scratch, try here - http://www.bikeschool.com/frame.htm
If you want to build up a bike on your own, try craigslist or google one of the bike co-ops (bikerowave, bike kitchen, bike oven).
Types of bicycles:
beach cruiser
BMX
MTB
hybrid
road bike - road/touring/tri
fixie
tandem
A road bike is probably your best bet, but if you don't like shifting, fixies are fun too.

Henry James is in Huntington Beach. He stocks all kinds of lugs and brazeons as well as every kind of True Temper steel you could want.
