I love your stuff beyond belief and am amazed how willing you are to help people. I have fallen in love with your videos. Sadly, I was in a car accident and had TBI, and reading is a hard trick for me, but the videos have blown my mind. I do have some simple questions I would love to ask you and would be willing to help you if you were ever willing to help assist me. I have basically made the exact same thing your first video has with a few small changes I could use some help with. If you have the quick time and would actually be willing to help me finish building this I could have tons of people come your direction. Thank you for the time and help.
