Lanse, think about it this way. If you are within about 5 degrees on the timing it should start. May not run too well, but should start. May not even run at tick-over but should run at half to three quarters engine speed.
Choke is used to richen the mixture for cold starting, therefore you should be adjusting the main jet for richness until you find it will start as you increase the effect of the choke - you are effectively adjusting it richer, but not weaker than 'no-choke' running.
Hope you are turning that engine faster than it seems on your video. The main jet system will not be functioning at all at tick-over speeds. Think - would the engine normally like to be in top gear at that speed? Probable answer is no!
Remember there are, or have been millions of engines like yours out there and they all ran. Yours should be no different; right amount of fuel, compression, spark at the right time and it must run. Pretty basic science, really. OK, they like to be hot as well but they usually have to run first to get hot.
