Newbie x plans and how and where

Hi, I live in NJ and am interested in what you are doing on this site. I have experience in other arts but not with a rocket heater. I've looked at the available plans that can be ordered but I don't want to begin a project that is too advanced or where I've made errors and can't figure out how to correct them.
Due to health reasons (I've already had a bout with cancer ) I do not want to order a wood burning stove so I'm wondering if I am able to construct a unit for a 1200 foot home? So your thoughts would be much appreciated.
Best,
Bruce
