I'm not crying, I've got something in my eye... This was one of your best Scott, all the best bud.

[@SHINdanny]

It may be asbestos, better send a sample to the lab for further analysis

[@adampease]

In addition to the outstanding craftsmanship of your work, ability to explain the practical steps you're doing, and great video editing skill, you do a really great job of connecting with your viewers. It's a special talent.

2:55 owner was an architect. So he had some "unique" ideas. Love the subtle little jab there.

[@ultimateadventuresblog6564]

lol.

[@NomenNescio99]

I work as a programmer, and I've had more than one client that has acted in exactly the same way with the it-systems we were putting together.

[@joetrigger890]

Can you imgine😰😰 way to hang in there

[@SHINdanny]

Mr. Architect paid for the service to manufacture his ideas, and in case they were not good, to redo them :D

[@alistairstephen7132]

All the architects iv worked with have had unique ideas 😂

[@zavoina]

You don't often realize when you're young and have so little, that really have so much. Thanks for "old Scott Brown" video. I hope you're soon showing us how that asbestos tile was removed and you build a new kitchen.

[@cb2000a]

The more stuff you own the more it owns you.

[@ScottBrownCarpentry]

Cheers Andy, that should be happening pretty soon 🤞

[@chrisg2779]

Feel lucky to have found a channel like this.

[@sandramoran6196]

with a name like Scott Brown you couldn't be anything but Scottish ,I watch your videos from Gods own Country Scotland 💙

[@kalan18725]

fuck scott brown mon the 55

[@joenixon00]

@@kalan18725 hahahah unneeded

[@andymcl1994]

Wow can't escape you lot anywhere 😂

[@Zapata2k95]

I’m a 24 year old, self employed glazier from Phoenix, Arizona in the US. I admire you because you’re a business owner, work full time and you also putting in the time to edit great content. You have been a great inspiration since I started watching your videos personally, as well as for my business. I’ve even created a pull-out tool box to fit in my glass A-frame, just like the drawers in your van.Thank you Scott, you’re the man.

[@crightonexteriorcleaning4107]

"You'll be dodging little jobbies" was in stitches at that. Really glad you dived into your time in Scotland! I live close to where you were born. Have pretty much binged watched all your videos during lock down. I am a groundworker looking to branch away into joinery and you have kinda helped with that decision. Hope you and all your family are staying safe during these crazy times!

[@stewartg4925]

As a watcher from Scotland this video made me smile!

[@mattro4902]

Heartwarming story, Scott. Enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.

[@grantpritchard7492]

So as well as being a damn fine carpenter you're also a bloody good storyteller! Nice work.

[@Aduhwan]

Although I did not have the good fortune to be born in Scotland, I did have the opportunity to spend 10 days in Scotland back in the late 90's. Your retrospective video brought back some great and fond memories for me: Dueling bagpipes in Edinburgh, the Royal Mile, The Fringe Festival, The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, The coolest Bed and Breakfast in Inverness (Haggis? What's that?), Railway travel, the landscape, and purple flowers (heath?) in the Highlands, the locomotive engineer, the attendant and her microscopic beverage cart, and Kyle of Lochalsh. Thank you. Scotland is a beautiful country and so are the Scots that I met on that journey. 👍🏾 Stay safe, stay healthy, and keep your head up.

[@egonmilanowski]

9:22 You are related to Santa Claus. That's awesome!

[@ScottBrownCarpentry]

😂

[@sirjohnman]

Not a bad start for a Kiwi 😉Much love from Scotland

[@TheJunkyardgenius]

Scott mate im so happy you said that. Im a joiner in dundee and the phrase why build something once when you can build it 2 or even 3 times is a daily occurence here. And 1 tip for anyone out there. NEVER do work in an architects house. When I watch guys like yourself working in new zealand or the states, canada or wherever, yeah building codes are slightly different but i always think its no like that here and you just hit the nail on the head. Every job is the same. Esp with very wealthy clients. We had 6 different drawings of a bathroom we are doing at the moment. Each new drawing showing up after you had built to the prevous drawing and now have to rip it out and change it all. Obviously the price changes but they still want it in the same deadline. It drives you bonkers. I'd love to come live their. I have friends in christchurch and wish i was there with a little less lunacy while working.

[@mjcooperman]

That made me pretty homesick in parts. Beautiful. 38 years in England, 15 years making television programmes, zero as a carpenter. Getting on for 8 years in the US, and seven of those as a...skilled laborer? Father-in-law is a builder and I got roped in early on. He says I’m a good carpenter, but it’s not a title I would give myself, still so much to learn. Should have started as a youngster, starting out at 39 was a shock to the system! All the best to you and yours, chief!

[@luisraposo872]

Love the videos, they help going through every thing that's been going on thank you bro !

[@robmaule4951]

I’m from portobello and it was a massive surprise watching this part of your story. Loved seeing my wee town too

[@tomrides4life]

Great vid as always👍🏼

[@johnpaa9032]

I enjoyed watching this Thank You for sharing your story Scott you are the best love watching your videos keep up the great work. You are doing a wonderful job creating your own craftsmanship

[@PixelSchmiede]

I really enjoyed this video! That's some good quarantine content.

[@scottgraham1891]

I've been binge watching your KZbin channel as I've been made redundant at 30 and carpentry is something I'm very interested in. I'm actually from Glasgow in Scotland and couldn't believe it when you said you were born here 😄🤙 love your channel bro

[@yrification]

Great video Scott. you've lived a great life so far. Thanks for letting us all be part of that journey and here's to the future being bigger and better! Stay Safe dude.

[@craigpeel5995]

Great story Scott. My daughter is now living on north island after meeting a kiwi farmer and was supposed to come back in May for a few months but unlikely now. She’s loving it and I hope to be a regular visitor after this year, helping with some carpentry jobs around the farm and house. Scotland is a beautiful place, the highlands in particular. Keep up the good work and vids. Stay safe, Craig UK

[@ScottBrownCarpentry]

Cheers Craig, Hope things get back to normal soon!
