How hard to build a CPU?

I retired and havent found a part-time job to kill some time. I read sometimes about people building their own CPU.

I know enough to install cards, drivers and stuff but I am no tech.

How hard is it to build a new PC?

I would buy a part every few weeks (that I could afford) and add it to the project. This way I could get exactly what I want instead of a store-bought system.

Any pointers? How do you start? What technical knowledge do you need?
