Hats off to Scott. Anyone allowing you to film certainly doesn’t have anything to hide.

[@DirtPerfect]

I Agree

[@criticalevent]

I wonder if he works like it's an F1 pitstop all the time or was that just for the camera :)

[@BobPegram]

@@criticalevent I bet if he slowed down he'd feel the aches and pains, besides, it's too fun!

[@farmerbill6855]

Man, there's nothing like watching a professional ply his trade. That man is a master. I never get tired of seeing someone who loves their work do it. Wes at WWW, Aaron welding, Jerry running that dozer, and that Letsdig18 guy in an excavator, among others, are truly a joy to watch. Looks good boys, best regards from Boone county.

Scott has two speeds: Fast and Stop... never saw him apply the brakes. What a great adventure. Thanks for allowing us to follow along! Mike

[@barrb6134]

Please thank Scott, for allowing you DP, to take us along to the shaft shop, it's really a pleasure watching a TRUE CRAFTSMAN work!

[@DirtPerfect]

Will do

Scott is a one name army, if he's not the boss I hope his boss realizes how much of an asset he is to the business!

[@drewdaskievige754]

Fast, efficient, gets more customers in and out, makes more money for the company. Cleans and puts things away as he goes, end of day clean-up a breeze.

[@tommyg878]

Scott is a fine person to learn “work” ethics from.

[@billwestphal1421]

After seeing this vid I will never complain on a cost again. Scott had this figured out and built and better yet explained in a way the average person could understand it. Your choice of venders are second to none.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks bill

[@gwpsr58]

Little known fact: Scott has never been bit by a mosquito. He moves way too damn fast for them to get a shot. What a guy!

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol

[@gotdeeres]

I absolutely loved the segment at the driveline shop. I never knew there was that much to building a driveshaft and that is why I never attempt any of this work. Scott is an artist. Great Video!!

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@odc43054]

Scott is a driveline god! True craftsman.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yes he is

[@thomasjonesjr9704]

Yes he is!!! A person like him are far and few nowadays. We used to have a guy like Scott here in Detroit . when he retired after 60 years he should have just closed the doors instead of selling . The people that bought his business were only in it for the money and didn’t care about the customer! Thankfully they only lasted a little over a year. Scott is a true craftsman!!!!!!

[@odc43054]

@@thomasjonesjr9704 my uncle had an outdoor power lawn and garden business. Ran it for 30+ years. People who bought it just wanted to manage a business. Didn’t last long.

[@richardbowles7690]

Great example of how the right tools make project run like clockwork. Bravo for Scott!

[@garyhunter6030]

Scott is a real professor on drive shafts. The man is a genius as well as a master of his craft.

[@astonmartin2727]

Scott is a champion at what he does. He is happy to have his talent recorded meaning he is a professional and not shy to let people know how he does his work. That shop has everything. Mike please dont keep us waiting long , i am sure we all want to see those wheels turning. Thanks for another great video.

[@paulhoneyman6923]

Aaron, you notice how Scott ALWAYS puts the tools away IMMEDIATELY after he's finished using it, DP could learn from him lol

[@tommyg878]

And that’s how he always knows where stuff is. I have the same rules in my shop.

A big shout out to Scott. A man that knows his job. Great video. ❤️👍. Ex army mechanic here that loved working on the big trucks but never seen that done before. That truck will serve you well. Be kind be safe and have a day.

It’s always a joy to watch a professional at work. Great to be able to see the inner workings like this. Half’s off to Scott for allowing the rest of us into the inner sanctum.

[@30shandala]

Makes me happy that people can still appreciate old school brilliance. Hard, hard, hard to teach.

[@stevefuller4355]

I know very little about drivelines but it is obvious that Scott at Perfection Driveline is a master of his craft. You could tell when he straightened the tube by spot heating and cooling he had done it more than a few times. I really enjoyed this video.

[@rickduquette3399]

Scoot is the true"MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE" -al joints". It is always a special moment in time when you get to see a man that loves his job and is extremely talented at doing it. Well done Scoot you are a "STAR"⭐⭐⭐.

[@joehussey2693]

Was awesome watching Scott in action, a lot of experience and talent. A master of his craft for sure!

[@holyearth61]

Scott was a true joy to watch. He should have an apprentice, for when you have someone who's a master, they should be able to pass what they know on to someone else. Other wise it's a lost trade.

[@46rambo49]

I'm making sure the boy Scout troop and ALL of my guys see this multiple times, seeing how things work is what America needs going forward. maybe create some interest in young minds

[@charliehill3062]

Scott is the HEAT!!!! He not only knows his trade to perfection, he works like he owns the place!

[@AquaPeet]

You know Scott got some skills right there, with all the tweaks and twists and turns and the speed he moves at... his arms and legs can't even keep up with his mind, he knows every little thing to be mindful of and it was a joy to see a craftsman like him work!

[@DirtPerfect]

He is the man

[@williammatthews2948]

I've never seen a driveshaft being built so this was really interesting. I fully support anyone with skills like Scott. It must be really fun to work at that shop.

[@markrwc6185]

I could watch Scott work all day. The guy is amazing.

[@aaronbummmanbehindthescene4931]

Me too I loved being down there watching

[@ddelano7408]

It was great to watch Scott ply his trade! Many years of experience are needed to be that good at getting the driveshaft to run true like that. Hat's off to Scott!

[@mitchs323]

Always a pleasure to watch some who knows his craft and is not afraid to let others watch. Thank you Scott for allowing us to view this process.

[@erikrunas226]

I must say this is a very interesting episode. He is a master of his craft.

When he put the dust cap in is going to help you out a lot in the future,what a craftsmen and a real gent,stay safe.

[@richardmartin6533]

Scott is amazing! It's such a privilege to watch him work. That level of experience and talent is impossible to replace and it would be extremely difficult to pass along all his knowledge to the next generation. I mean he's so quick and this younger generation just couldn't keep up with him. I just wish I lived closer to that shop, my car needs some serious driveshaft help from Scott!

[@BAILEY27877]

Scott stole the show, most definitely....a true master of his profession

[@robertsimpson772]

All I can say is WOW!!! Scott made that look so easy. His experience and knowledge really shows. He really was the star in this video. I was glued to the screen like I was hypnotized for 30 minutes.

[@rickwalling1148]

Enjoyed watching Scott at CTC as he’s a true professional! That was easy to see as he put tools back as soon as he was finished with them. Not just leaving them lay around. Great video

[@richarddockery3841]

Professional courtesy letting you guys back to see that happen. You can tell Scott likes what he does, and his employer is lucky to have someone who cares about the customer. Thanks for getting this on video.

[@markpeterson5479]

Scott is definitely a master. He knows his trade so well that he doesn't have to stop and try to figure it out. It's great to watch him work.

[@maxdw1]

I love how there is just a guy sitting there on a computer while the other guy is just smashing on the driveshaft.

[@robertdeubler966]

I have never seen a master driveline builder at work. Fascinating.

The way he straighten the drive line heat and cool , there is a channel called Turn Wright Machine Works. A machine job shop! He does solid rod marine shaffting the same way.

[@jaredspear8140]

Damn, Scott’s done that a time or two. Sure learned some stuff watching him. Will definitely try to take them into consideration when we are ready for a drive shaft in our race car! Hopefully I can remember half of what he did when I replace our u-joints in a couple weeks.

[@chipps1066]

It;s a pleasure watching a true craftsman like Scott!

[@ronaldheit196]

Oh yay, Scott definitely is a Master at his craft. It was a real pleasure watching him doing that job big time. Lt. Dan is in good hands with people like Scott and Arron building him up. Keep on making these awesome vids Mr. Dirt Perfect.

[@troywilliams5249]

Watching Scott makes me want to take a nap. This somes it up. Passion is when you put more energy into something than is required to do it. It is more than just enthusiasm or excitement, passion is ambition that is materialized into action to put as much heart, mind, body and soul into something as is possible.” Another great video Mike. Can't wait for the next one.

[@marcuschupp2187]

wonderful definition of passion. It is lacking in far too many people, regardless if they are flipping hamburgers or building space ships.

[@smitty3471]

Scott is an absolute master at his trade, it’s always amazing to watch skilled workers perfect their craft, thanks Dirt Perfect and MBTS for getting this filmed!

[@MichaelJones1527]

It's always good to see a pro at work and Scott definitely is a drive-line pro.

[@wdwerker]

Scot is a joy to watch, true craftsman in a trade I never would have guessed needed so much finesse.

[@Losttoanyreason]

Scott knows his stuff "for shore". I had to laugh when Scott confirmed they had done some work of Dirt Perfect before. I guess the fact he was doing more work for Dirt Perfect's meant his check cleared last time, LOL. really cool all that was involved in making this drive shaft. Even Aaron seemed impressed with Scott's welding skills. Most of Dirt Perfects video's contain some silliness and cutting up while getting the jobs done making them fun videos to watch but I have noticed an additional level with the Lt. Dan project. While they are still cutting up as usual, Dirt Perfect is a very more focused and serious Dirt perfect with this project . Also, gasp! He has actually been seen doing actual work and getting dirty in the shop , doing stuff and all, LOL. I'm done picking at you today Dirt Perfect. This has been a really fun project just watching . I imagine it's even more so you working on your new baby. Nay not baby. Your Frankenstein Monster! Soon you will be able to scream " It's alive!, It's alive!

[@jimfox8139]

Really enjoyed watching Scott work on that axle. He’s a true craftsman.

[@nicholaslewis9037]

That is the coolest thing I have ever seen being built is a drive line

Scott is a real Pro, when he finishes using a tool it goes back to it's place. When he needs a tool he knows where it is, very tidy workplace.

SO FAR, Scott has given the best lesson today. Never seen a driveshaft shop. I would Apprentice under Scott for this skilled job.

[@dansevern3291]

"There is so much more to it". Man, that's an understatement. It's always great to see someone who doesn't go with "good enough" and will work to get thousandths of an inch out when it's "within limits" just because zero is better.

[@jeandupont9140]

Woh, Mr Scott is 100% and every gesture is precise and to a usefulness, incredible, he does not forget anything and everything seems easy with him and for having done one or two and still not completely I can say that this man is a "God" of transmission, even with all the tools I would need at least 3 days ......

I’d recommend adding a dump valve on the lift axle. You’ll be able to dump the air without lifting the axle so you can make tight turns without dragging the tires while still looking legal to the dot
