Building a starter from parts will be interesting and rewarding. Embellishents you might like to add could include a remote button station with local/remote enable switch, or a hand/off/auto switch with an input for a sensor such as a float switch. The next level of complexity would be a reversing starter with limit switches etc operating on ELV control.
Spec the parts, draw the mechanical construction and the schematic, build it like a proper panel.
It's worth getting a book or two on the subject before getting stuck in, because there are some subtleties that you can't learn just by wiring things up.
