He describes it as a week 3-4 on the Gaffney Scale

I have a lot of pieces but can’t seem to find the final bit. Anyone else complete it?

Edit: Pretty sure i got it now but also see no way to submit my answer.

I finally saw something yesterday and feel pretty confident, with one little issue.
And I couldn’t find a way to submit my answer on his blog.

Actually, I may hold off a couple more minutes. I haven't used everything that was given. Loving it so far though...

A PM to adamsimonlevine; his Muggle nom. Don't know how often he checks in though. I'm also hoping someone lets us know when his site has submission instructions.

Can't get any foothold on this one, would appreciate a little nudge or someone to talk through my thoughts with.

Got it, awaiting confirmation. I have a question or two about my path, but confident in the ultimate answer. Thanks, Adam.

Edit: confirmed and questions answered by Adam.
