Question Large project question

I've been asked to automate the build of several products that all comprise of several projects. I want to try and keep the amount of code that I would have to maintian to a minimum, and the amount of code that I can share across project as high as posible.
What would be the propper design for my scripts at that point ?

The way I'm considering trying to do this is by creating one script that just searches a tree for build scripts and executes them. So it would work something as the following :

build : product 1
-> script goes to the installer tree
-> the install scripts will point at their dependancies
-> dependancies will get executed ( projects get build )
-> the installers get build
-> the product will get combined into a shipable format

this is my first try at visual build so I'd like to get some feedback before I end up getting stuck somewhere along the line.
