I have come to the point of needing / wanting my own partial Debian mirror

my mirror didn't look quite like what I thought it should. All the
packages were dumped into folders under "pool/" and folders it created
such as "stable", "unstable", and "woody" were essentially empty. (Now I
am trying an rsync string to see what the difference will be.)
I was wondering if other people could give me some feedback on how they
did their mirrors. What commands did you use and where are there some
good howto's on doing it as efficiently as possible?
Also, since I don't want to mirror the ISO files I was wondering how
difficult it would be to use something like jigdo to create the disks from
my own mirror?
I've attached the debmirror script we run everyday to update the
mirror for our beowulf cluster, it maybe of some help
How much disk space is required to do this?
I'm mirroring woody and sarge for i386, including non-free and source
files. I'm not mirroring debian-security. My mirror takes about 37 GB for
this.
