I bought my very first kit from Jim at the CLA. I've never built a gun before. Motorcycles, many...guns, never. Those videos have been priceless to me. I don't care about the video quality, Jim's quality of teaching is very good. I'm nearing completion of the initial assembly of my .58 Colonial.
I sometimes run them at 2X speed and low video quality when I watch them for the second or third time. I watched them ahead of building, took notes, and got the right tools that Jim mentioned before moving forward. I'd never of thought of many of those tips on my own, like flipping it and tapping the buttstock to loosen the barrel. I'd probably have broken something.
I've learned an enormous amount from those videos...and if you're reading this, Jim, THANK YOU!
