I recently bought a mechanical pencil to try them out and found that I prefer the added weight to them as I’m able to control the pressure better.

To anyone wondering how long this might take, I started on 1/2/21 and finished on 2/17/21. I logged 26.5 hours. Your mileage might vary, but that’s how long it took me and it included about a week where I had to stop because of other obligations.

I’ll have about an hour per day to devote to this. How long do you think this course would take to complete? Looking at the projects per lesson I think this could be done in a month, but it would be very rushed, so maybe 60 days? Is there an average for how long these classes take to complete? I could see this taking an entire semester if I took my time.

I was always like, what does H stand for and b2? But this finally cleared it up for me, thanks Matt!

Hi Gigi,

I’ll be glad to help. The video is playing normally. Can you describe the issue that you’re having specifically? Are you receiving an error message or is the video taking a long time to load for you?
