SW, in case you were wondering why I said you're overconfident, this is a 
perfect example. :-)

I would be very surprised if you could "hook up a few modules and read a 
manual" and get a working CAN system in less than a week.

Having never done this before, how in the world can you know that 
implementing a custom protocol is "not _THAT_ hard"?

Doing something pointless "for fun" gets old rather quickly.
