I know EAA has a course on welding and fabric covering and the Tony
Bingelis books and internet are also helpful. I am just wondering how
difficult it would be for a new guy, willing to learn (but not crash)
to acquire the skills and missing information to build something like a
Buttercup or Tailwind.



You wouldn't be the first - by a long shot.

On the other hand, it is possible that you wouldn't be the first to abandon
a project part way through - There is a saying that "If you want to fly -
buy." Build it only if you want to enjoy the building process. Pick
materials that you will enjoy working with.

But, sometimes you don't know till you try, right?
