I really want to build a frame sometime too. I think a lugged SS 29er would be frickin' awesome.

Oh, and judging from the one book that I've read on the subject, lugged frames *look* easier to build. But then you've gotta hunt down lugs with the angles you want.
For a nice compromise I think a mostly lugged frame with some fillet-brazing would be good.
