It was a great experience though.

They do nice kits and they're a simple build if you follow the layout
I made an 18watt plexi years ago and went from there into other builds
That amp is still going strong and a friend has it now
It's addictive so be warned

I would caution though that tube amps are high power high voltage devices that can easily kill you or burn through your fingers irreparably even when off due to the capacitors, so learning about safe handling is crucial.
I wouldn't do a Blues Junior anyway… the Hotrod Deluxe is so far in a different league it's untrue - and you can pick them up second hand for under £400 quite easily.

You could keep to the original design and Jensen speaker; brighten the sound and increase the volume by fitting a Celestion Blue; tighten the bottom end flubbiness by changing the value of the coupling caps; increasing the headroom by adding a negative feedback switch; etc, etc.
