This video was created as a guide. This video was in part assisted by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9v42s... . Where possible I have tried to highlight places and methods that may need attention for novices.

Please ignore the "Part 1" and other "Part" chapters. They were an idea that wasn't followed through.

Let me know what you think
