5 speed freewheel wheel set for a Clydesdale?

I'm going to give wheel building a try, was wondering what components I should be looking for? My instinct is to stick with a 126MM 5 speed freewheel hub and 700c rims for the first go around. Im pushing 230 lbs right now and might want to "sport tour" with light gear, but that still adds 20-30lbs to the load. Id appreciate any wheel building recipes, and in particular, recommendations as to which hubs I should be looking for on ebay and such. Thanks, Woody
