Never been into gears but is it possible to build with a single chain ring thus doing away with all the front jiggery pokery giving a cleaner line need to build something that's easier on my knees

Yeah of course you can. I tend to try and pick my rear block gearing so that the common gears I use are with a straight-ish chainline. Some mtb front rings have a taller teeth with a wide-narrow tooth layout especially for this setup, so that the chain is less likely to jump off.
