Hi and welcome to the forum!

I stopped at 2:00, where I have to say that I cannot recommend this video. The usage of the DatumPlane was already unnecessary, but sketching inside of a body and lofting in Part is just wrong. Besides the fact that you should always use the simplest tools available and loft is among the most complicated. Better use cones or revolves.

There is no justification to use PartDesign AND Part. :oops:
Try with only 1 PD.

No need for DatumPlane.
Object with no real dimension (as IRL).

I cannot recommend.
