Building a jet engine..?

Question

Hey everyone.
My brother and I are interested in Aviation especially on the Jet engine side of things.
We were wondering, where to start if we wanted to build a gas engine that worked on a similar principle but obviously much smaller just for experience and to understand the basics.

Thanks Angus.
