Buying plans for a Senior Telemaster balsa wood kit?? (95”)?

No one is selling the Senior Telemaster kit online, and all I can find is the plans on Ebay for it for like 5$. I know i would have to have them printed and i would also have to buy wood and cut out each individual peice of the plane to build it. My question is, has anyone ever done this, and can someone maybe explain if its difficult to cut your own peices out and try to go by paper alone? I was hoping someone who may have experience or actually have the plane be able to tell me if buying the plans and building it is doable. Please help me on this if you have any hobby building experience, thankyou.

I would suggest you start with a simpler model unless you are “practiced” at cutting parts.
I build from plans all the time, and design some aircraft myself.

When buying plans from E-bay, I have found that in many cases they are poor quality “copies” of plans that originally came with kits; so if there are pictures of the plans, look closely before buying.

It IS doable, but NOT as easy as working with kits, naturally.

Just checked. Hobby Lobby is supposed to have it back in stock as a kit this spring.
