I recognize that I can buy frame saw components.
Frame saw in this case being a resaw type of saw, more like the veneer saw type but for one person use (see 5:00 in this video for what I'm talking about).

I'm assuming, but could be swayed, that 42 inches of 2" wide .032" 1095 steel will be a good start for this. It will not be for veneer as I don't have a shop assistant to stand on the other side of the saw and keep it in a cut that fine.
Anyone with practical experience making and using one? Any advice?
I'm not decided on tooth count, but I think somewhere around 3 teeth per inch. I've seen a lot of variations in that, as well as in plate thickness (e.g., something closer to a traditional rip carpenter saw like north of .04") and width (some saws look like they may have plates 5 or 6 inches tall, though perhaps that's more for veneer sawing.
I intend mine to be crude, but functional, as I want to use it and not spend 25 hours building it. Thus far I have resawn with a carpenter's saw, which hasn't really been an issue, but looking to experiment and maybe get a step closer to total power tool elimination.
