"Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire."
- Gustav Mahler
Excellent quote, Mr. Scott!!
God bless you and your family.

You don't have to regret not going to college, Scott. You display more wisdom than many highly qualified people.

This is obviously a very intelligent man with a lot of life experience.

Iāve been watching your channel for years now and even though I have a few years on you Iāll be 72 in June, I always seem to get something from every episode. I live in New Jersey, my Father was a carpenter but he forbid me from doing carpentry. Well I didnāt listen, started framing in 1972 and completed 90 some homes and loved every minute. Of course now at 71, I too have slowed down. Working in NYC for some time I was at the Twin Towers when the first plane hit. Down the road I contacted Cancer from 9 -11 and had to deal with Chemo and a handful of surgeries. I am Cancer free now and canāt wait to get back to work. As you know, when itās in ur blood you canāt help it. I still have twenty some Porter Cable saws, and lots of tools. I climbed the corporate ladder for a while but at the end of the day Iām just a carpenter. And proud of it. Love ur channel, keep it up

This man is a legend. From an Australian point of view, he is classed as a 'Top Bloke'; someone who is just a hard working fella, that cares about his family and friends (mates). But I've followed him and his videos for a few years now and absolutely enjoy watching his content. If this bloke wrote a book about his life, it would be a best seller! Insofar I refer to an amazing book titled: 'My Fortunate Life' (Albert Facey). If anyone reads this post, check out this book. It was from an average man, who decided to put his 'average life' down on paper....Scott is the embodiment of this type of man! He's a legend. Thanks for your all your videos.

I'm an electrician. I'm 33 years old and I haven't done this job for a long time, life is full of surprises and quick turns. Every day I have to deal with the stress of increasingly tight construction times and the stress of a trade that I still have a lot to learn about. It's hard to make ends meet... It's hard in general. I felt so much relief watching this video that I almost wanted to cry. I once read a book by a Japanese author who said that after a certain age it is difficult to find teachers. True, but not this time. Thank you
Greetings from Italy

I am a 46 year old carpenter and have felt the same way. Even after achieving great accomplishments along the way I'd have anxiety getting the next job done. Not many people I started with are still going. It takes a certain inner strength to last in this trade. Feeling like you never really made it until you realize I'm still here still going. The struggle is real. Survive is the only thought you have at times.

I love working with older guys, no wasted time & also great conversations š

āYou only have one chance to spend time with your kidsā. Love that. I lived the overtime life, afraid to miss out on the extra money. Now at 35, with a growing family Iām lucky to be able to provide a good life without the long hours. A wise man once told me donāt let fun interfere with work, but donāt let work interfere with fun. Work hard and do what you have to do, but make time for family and friends.

Never mind a video interview, this man needs to write a book . The wisdom and knowledge he possesses will someday be lost to the world, Only to be replaced by stories of once upon a time. He would make an awesome shop teacher a mentor and a friend. I wish you many years of health, happiness, joy and purpose . Thank you for your words of encouragement.

Damn this was good. Sitting here as a self employed carpenter holding my 13 month baby girl. This was heartfelt.

22 years old here, been working w my old man general contracting on and off the last 4 years and I just had to express how grateful I am for this outlook about life and how refreshing it is to find a truly knowledgeable person willing to share values, ideas, and information about the craft

As a young kid, fresh out of high school, I got a job as a carpenter helper for a small general contractor. I learned a lot and continued working for him each summer as I attend junior college working for an engineering degree. College was hard for me and the construction work was more appealing (and it paid me well). After two years I told the general contractor I wanted to stay on and become one of his job site superintendents. He looked at me and said, " That's fine with me, but first you have to get your degree and then you come see me about that job." After four more years I got my BSEE degree and I never went back to construction. He was a very wise and successful man, in business and family life. He told me once, " you can earn a living with your back or with your head, you make the choice."

As a 30yo carpenter with a wife, two kids, and the wolf always at my door, I NEVER regret the time spent listening to Scott. This was a consoling and enlightening interview, and gave me a lot of pause to reflect on where I'm at, and thank God for it.

Retired after 50 years in the building trade as a carpenter in the UK .This man sums it up for me should be giving public lectures

Every young man or woman needs someone like this in their life.

As one of Scottās three boys, I assure you, whatever wisdom, humility, and overall goodness you see in these videos pales to the real thing. Itās impossible to accurately say what a good man my father is.
When I was 14 (20 years ago), a man in his mid twenties said that someone should just follow Scott around and record everything he says for posterity. Now itās finally (kind of) happening with YouTube, and the world is a better place for it.
