I cannot really recommend this video. It is considered bad practice to reference generated geometry.

Overly complicated !
The bigger error : not to use symetrical axis.

Please don't call this "Tutorial For Beginner" because there is too much bad practices :

* Use Sketcher_ConstrainSymmetric and axis (so 107 and DatumPlane are useless)
* Do not repeat the same dimension. Use Sketcher_ConstrainEqual.
* Prefer Horizontal/vertical distance to Sketcher_ConstrainDistance
* For fillet selection, try Wireframe display
* Do not use Zero dimension
* Do not support sketch upon face, but prefer axis or sketch line.

(Problems with fillet in my file)

To add to this:
* You don't need these construction lines in the first sketch.
* You could use some for the equal distances.
