I don't think this makes you look like you have problems. I think it makes you look like a perfectly well adjusted, down to earth, man. Seeing you describe your relationship with tools, and in fact, the people that gifted them to you, is quite simply, delightful. Here you have a man, relating his tool stories, and unabashedly, missing loved friends. The world could do with a few more like you, Scott. Thank you for sharing your stories, and being a genuine man. Your friend, Jeff.

Thanks for putting my thoughts into words. I couldn't have said it better. This video is a beautiful hommage to those mentors who gifted him tools and so much more. If this was to be seen as ramblings from "a man with real problems" as he said, then we'd have become a truly irredeemable society. And i don't believe that for a bit.

I agree wholeheartedly! I had a lump in my throat watching this video, thinking of the tools that I have had handed down to me by my father and both grandfathers. They occupy a special place in my collection and my heart, and every time i use them, I am reminded of the person who's hand held them before mine. I will someday pass them on to my sons as well.

I had a little cry watching this. I am a man who earns his living using these tools. It's heartening to hear of others who closely identify the humanity , the memory , and the sweat of heritage that passed from a previous generation to one following. Sadly this probably stops here and goes no further.

Perfectly said Ben. If everyone in the world were like that, we'd truly live in Eden.

This man is a national treasure. I would listen to a "Top 50 Tools" video from him.

Well, Scott, this video really hit home for me. I'm 62, and have been working construction for 45 years now. I have a small collection of tools that were passed down to me by my dad and my grandfather that are priceless to me. They are the most valued possessions I own. Watching this video brought a tear to my eye -- knowing I wasn't alone! I just forwarded this link to my son (who I'm blessed to work with and pass my skills down to). After completing college and a tour in the military and working in business management for several years, he showed up on my jobsite one day with his bags and boots and said, "Dad, I've made the decision to trade my computer for a hammer -- and trade headaches for backaches. I want to pass something down to my little son someday, and there's nothing of value like the trades." What a gift that was! My son watches your videos and everything you post has deep meaning and is of great value. Right down to the boots! I cant thank you enough for instilling a sense of importance to the trades we practice. True craftsmen are a rarity these days, and the most important tool that you're supplying young guys with is a sense of belonging and a feeling of purpose. Unfortunately, we live in a disposable society littered with false values. It's up to us older guys to nurture the young guys and teach them not only the trades, but the priceless attributes of integrity and responsibility. Thanks a million Scott. Keep up the great work. God Bless, Rob

You remind me so much of him, not in looks, but in your videos of craftsmanship and extremely efficient productivity! Thank You, it is a Gift to me. As a female, I was not allowed to learn these skills in summers when my brothers were working with my Dad. After I was divorced, however, my Dad gave me many, many tools, and helped me remodel my house, taught me some then, and building wood privacy fence. The tools I have from my Dad's Hands, are the most Special to me, of course! I know he is up there, proud that I am learning from you, the things I didn't get to learn growing up.

In a world where nothing is valued but stuff that holds no actual value, it is not only inspirational but humbling to see a craftsman speak about tools that not only helped make the world a better place by making, fixing and maintaining goods but the tools holding sentimental value with providing for a family and forging bonds with great men and in turn it will teach people that things shouldn't be valued but what they can do to get you closer to people, iam learning to be a better craftsman and hopefully men and women like you will keep me going!!

Could you do a video on your biggest mistakes in your working career and how you learned from them ?

You are an awesome individual!Every day I go into my shop I feel so blessed!It is so satisfying to be surrounded by quality tools,acquired through a lifetime.The history and connection with others who have shared equipment and part of themselves with you is irreplaceable!I think of all the mentors I have had in my life,and I appreciate every one of them!I try to do the best I can with every task,in a way to honor those that believed in me.It’s satisfying now to be in the position to pass on what was given to me!I think it is special to see the appreciation from both sides,to give and receive! Thank you so much for your videos I look forward to every one of them!

This video shows how much you appreciate your mentors and their good influence in your life. It shows your appreciation for the history of people working with both wood and metal. It shows how much you value hard work and fine craftsmanship. It also emphasizes the value you place on family and friends. This man has made a truly inspiring video that shows his love for life. I don’t see any problems with that. Society needs more teachers like him. Thank you sir.

"one's in his work clothes, one's in his Sunday clothes". Damn. You just about broke my heart with that one. ;-)

I love this video! Some of my favorite tools I own were given to me by old men I loved & admired who are no longer living. When I use the tools they gave me I get a good feeling. The last time I saw grandpa alive he gave me a chisel that his father gave him, It means a lot to me.

I just watched this whole video without thinking about clicking on another one part way through. To me that really means I thoroughly enjoyed it. Glad I watched until the very end. So true. Things are just that, but the memories they bring are priceless. This makes me think of the stories I've heard about my grandpa's. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!

Sir, anyone fortunate enough to work with you are truly blessed!

I just took ownership of my father’s tools. I miss him so much and love holding these tools in my hands that he used. This video is so timely and so perfect! Thank you!

These are things you spend most of your day with, most days of your life. When used, tools become an extension of your body and an expression of your will. It's a unique ability that makes us distinctly human. There's no problem - these things are really personal and important!

I just stumbled upon your youtube videos and have enjoyed them immensely. I'm retired from heavy highway construction .. never worked with carpentry much from high school to retirement; however, I was fortunate enough to have an uncle who was as nearly talented as you are. He built homes in the early 50's to the late 60's. And he did it all! Laid out the foundation. excavated for the foundation. built the footers right up to shingling the house ... he did all the electrical, all the plumbing. and built the cabinets for the kitchen ... everything from rough carpentry to finish carpentry and he was good. You remind me so much of him, my favorite uncle ! I appreciate your soft heart ... nothing to ever be ashamed of ... thanks for your videos

Arguably one of the best videos on KZread. Your passion and way with words describes the exact way I feel about my tools. It would be an honor to shake your hand one day. You’ve definitely been a positive influence in my adult life and the way you carry yourself is a prime example of a Good man with a big heart.

Much respect for giving the glory to our Carpenter and Creater. Great video, Scott!

On the contrary, this video makes you look like a kind and thoughtful man who appreciates more than just the face value of things. I can relate, I was fortunate enough to inherit my grandfather's tools and giant Mac box in which they live and they are priceless to me. Every time I am lucky enough to need one of them, I think of the greatest man I have ever known and many memories. His tools are primarily mechanic's, metal worker's, and pipe fitter's tools with some other odds and ends. Classic precision measuring tools many decades old, calipers, dial indicators, etc. are so beautiful and so well made. Aside from his tools, I have sentimental values assigned to most of my other tools. Tools are such a unique and dynamic object with stories to tell. Great video Sir!

It's people such as yourself, plain spoken , clear headed, and passionate, that make utube such an valuable tool . Thank you I thoroughly enjoyed this

I can appreciate your background and lore. You appear to be a real gentleman and an excellent worker with top skills including relating the stories to others. Honorable, honest and true to your friends an family. A rare breed these days. Keep up the good work!

Really love hearing these stories about where these tools came from, they go way back, further than I was expecting :)

Thank God for this Man! I don't have any positive male role models in my life, but this Man fill that void completely. He's a legend.

Scott. Thank you. The nostalgia near had me in tears. There’s more than a few things I’ve inherited in The Shed that are treasured. 100+ yr old tools I inherited from a grandfather ( his lack of formal trade qualifications didn’t stop him building two houses around 1900, they’re still standing). Tools of similar age from my father in law. And my anvil that my wife got me as a birthday present. It ain’t just men who love tools. Kind regards from Canberra. Hope you and loved ones are well in this pandemic period. Mark

I just discovered your channel and am amazed at the depth of knowledge you bring to the table. Growing up without a male role model has been one of the toughest parts of becoming a man, homeowner, and all around do it yourselfer. I feel like watching you teach lessons that most men should learn from a mentor or father has come at the right time in my life. Better late than never, but I am in a place where my maturity and desire to become more self-sufficient puts me in a great place to soak up all of the amazing skills that you provide through this channel. Thank you! I wish I could find a mentor like you where I live, you remind me of the best shop teacher Grandpa or uncle that really knew what he was talking about and your faith solidifies the whole deal. God bless and take care. John

Thanks for sharing your favorite tools. I have some favorite tools handed down from my dad who was a master mechanic his whole life and we all built the ranch we grew up on so I always had tools in hand and still do. Really love this channel and you are a great host and craftsman. Keep up the great work. I build custom guitars and tattoo for a living so some of my favorite tools are my routers/over arm pin router/router table/, my Leatherman, my big re saw bandsaw, and of course my tattoo machines.

The closeup of his hands are a testimony to his stories. 100 percent respect

I'm not much of a DIY, but I have been adding tools to my garage lately; a power drill, an orbital sander, chain saw, and a circular saw is next on my wish list. What I loved about this video is your connection to people the tools bring you. My father gave me his old pick, hoe, axe, shovel, sickle, machete, and a set of wrenches. Every time i touch them, use them, I think about how special that these physical objects instantly bring memories of my Dad. He was a had worker and an inspiration to me. He was someone who grew up on a sugar cane plantation on Hawaii island, with an eight grade education, he joined the plantation workforce. He went into active duty during WW2, enjoyed a career in the Army until he retired after 20+ years, and then worked in Civil Service until he retired. He and my mother also helped my two brothers and myself get four year college degrees. M intend to give these tool to my children and hopefully the will understand how special the tools connect to three generations.

This thoughtful breakdown warmed my heart. I love the passion shown for "just tools". I too am a tool bug. Tools passed down from my father/grandfather and then to my 4 younger boys mean everything to me. I just found your channel. I appreciate what you do Scott.

love this video.

Some tools that don’t work as good as some new stuff but I’m used to them and through the years , they just feel right. My tools will be passed to my son when the time comes. Tools do have souls.

You teach with grace, humility, confidence and eloquence. You inspire with your conduct and ethic, and I can’t help but feel like there is something extra special about carpentry in the classic sense. After all, the greatest man to ever walk this earth was a carpenter. Anyway, as a tradesman and contractor myself, I have and will continue to learn a lot from you. Thanks for sharing your gifts.

I recently discovered and already love your channel. In regards to the broad axe head, I have restored a very similar one. My research told me that that size and style were primarily used for hewing railroad ties. They have a handle that is basically the same length as a felling axe, but with a slight curve near the head. I bought my handle online but have yet to hang the head on it. Thank you for this excellent channel!

ngl I felt the emotion rise up in me. My dad raised me with a similar love of tools and craft. He introduced me to his mentors who I learned to love as family, who have passed, and who I miss greatly. These men passed down rare and useful tools to my father seeing the quality of his efforts, his craft and his character. When I go up and visit him, he always has something to show me, with a lot of story behind a technique or a tool. I love my father very much. He is my hero and it means a lot to know others, who have built a life with their hands have similar experiences. Thanks for sharing.

Like many, he's just feeling guilty because of his belief in god so has to express and prove that people are more important to him.

Most of the time, people let you down, I understand this man for having great appretiation for his tools. In my case, I lost of my so-called friends, not because they're dead, but the course of life got away them, Only in my case I don't love tools, even though I take care of them.

U bring tears almost ..to my eyes and I'm proud of what I have u show and prove what is important

I just LOVE what I'm learning from you. It's invaluable having the great luck coming across your channel! THANK YOU for sharing years of experience with me.

God bless you and your family, sir !

Found your channel a little bit ago and have been exploring your content library. I liked your straight forward approach, you carry great weight of authority and experience when you speak, now to find out your are a Christian blesses me even more. Thank you for being bold.

An an ungodly man myself, what I like most about Scott's channel is that talks about his tools and his work with a sincerity and gravitas that cut across faith or religion. He just loves what he does.

Amen. I just found this channel, too, and like you, I suspected Scott was a Christian. Very pleased to see that is so. This channel is very much in the character of books by Bob Schultz like Created for Work. For my brothers out there, I highly recommended it.

@@McDeth187 Your comment would have the same impact to most if you did not use your pre-qualifier: "As an ungodly man myself ..." But me as someone who cares if you know what's beyond your next tool purchase as well as what's beyond this life on earth; I stopped to reply. Question: Why identify yourself as an ungodly man? Did you know the unforgivable sin is to reject the Holy Spirit? In case you don't know or have forgotten: we all must believe in, repent to, and be water baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins to start a relationship with Lord Jesus who is God. The Holy Spirit is convicting you right now, friend. So, don't identify to people what you are not ... rather tell people what you are; or more importantly what you believe. By default: not believing in Lord Jesus is believing in Satan and all his lies. Question: Do you believe in the super-natural? Peace of Lord Jesus upon you and yours. May Lord Jesus give you clarity and wisdom to see through your darkness and confusion. Amen.

You summed it up perfectly of how I feel about my tools, and where they came from (brought tears to my eyes) only few people would understand.............. Thanks

It's a real pleasure listening to U sir. You are not talking about "just a tool" and job, but the real values of our life: family, love, friendship, hard work! Just keep going every craftsman understands, believe me! Regards from Serbia.

I enjoyed this immensely. Thank You,

We especially loved the end cap! Man, I was thinking of my Dads, grandfathers and great-grandfather tools I own. Thanks! p.s. if anyone gives a thumbs down- your just a sorry soul!

This video brought a tear to my eye! You sir are brilliant, refined, and a true gentleman. I wish we were neighbors. I can't get enough of your videos; your charisma, knowledge, & professionalism. Thank you!!

I am so glad I found your Chanel some years ago . You are so inspiring. I remember all the time with my dad working on projects. You are à mentor for all of us. Thank you so much
