Hi Scott I start my carpentry apprenticeship in September and watching your apprenticeship videos really helped me, thanks

[@aaronduarte9508]

Just wanted to share some good fortune, inspired by you and your Dad. I was asked to design a piece of furniture for a boutique style furniture store here in Arizona. When I showed them the prototype. Before stain and finish for approval the lady made a comment how it was nice, for once to not have scribbles and lines and dimensions and a bunch of random pencil marks all over the piece of work. I recently started doing as you have taught, “leave no pencil marks”. The simple act of craftsmanship obviously made my work stand out from the crowd, and I actually won the bid. Thank you for your videos, and all The life lessons that you pass along to all of us woodworkers. Stay healthy!!!!

@ADFK 686 perhaps the best means of deciding is to choose the thing you enjoy doing. If you enjoy electronics head that route and if you enjoy/have a passion for woodworking head the carpentry/joinery route. Once a qualified craftsman you have scope to specialise or shift direction.

Anyhow, I really enjoy the editing, music, and content of your videos. The majority of the homes here in south Florida consist of exterior walls made of cinder blocks, aluminum framing, maybe a steel post/ beam or 2, and 'timber' roofing.

[@davesmith2233]

Hey Scott, try googling "camera armour", you can get lots of protective hard cases for DSLR cameras, in particular there are ones that have screw-on trumpet-like attachments that protect the lens since the lens-to-body connection is a weak point if you drop it. A more serious option is "camera cage", which may be a good idea anyway if you're using a DSLR as a video camera, I assumed it was a GoPro or similar. Camera cages include all sorts of options, mount points, stabilisers for handheld shooting, and obviously protection of the camera body.

Hi Scott, Sorry about the lock down but it is good that New Zealand has leaders that are taking this seriously. Here in Wisconsin we are averaging more than 700 new cases detected per day. I enjoy your videos.

[@rerolley]

@h2s Just out of curiosity I went to the California Department of Health Covid dashboard and the data I see there suggests a different picture. Both new cases and new deaths were higher in August than in May. These data are consistent with the Washington Post Covid website. This site is the best one I have found to easily compare different states in the US.

[@aeasthouse316]

rerolley Can I also point out, body of scientific work is emerging that shows our immune system is capable of remembering COVID-19 and producing a lasting immunity. It therefore starts to indicate that countries with high original infections are close to achieving herd immunity whilst those that have closed down (such as New Zealand) will still have to go through the pandemic once they open their borders. Some of the evidence: www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2550-z Researchers found that: * People with or recovering from COVID-19 displayed immediate memory T-cell activation to the virus’ proteins. * People with an infection history-going back as far as 17 years-of SARS-CoV-1 which emerged in China around 2002-2003, had long-lasting memory T-cell responses that ”displayed robust cross-reactivity to the N protein of SARS-CoV-2.” * And, perhaps most interesting, SARS-CoV-2-specific memory T-cell activation was found “in individuals with no history of SARS, COVID-19 or contact with individuals who had SARS and/or COVID-19.” The last point is certainly enough to give us hope. And yet more positive research emerges. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.08.01.20166553v1 the response of antibodies-one of the primary classes of immune cells used to defend against pathogens-stayed active in saliva up to 115 days after the onset of symptoms in COVID-19 patients. Work on yet another kind of immune cell, the ‘helper’ T-cell as opposed to the ‘killer’ T-cell, was completed earlier in the year when several studies published in Nature and Science (www.worldatlarge.news/function-health/antibody-and-killer-tcell-found-for-covid ) found that the helpers could also, more than half the time, identify COVID-19 and sound the alarm, and that these helpers were present in patients that had never been exposed to COVID-19. The evidence of re-infection is, at this point, non-existent, which suggests humanity’s collective immune system is working well to combat it.

[@kshred3043]

@@aeasthouse316 "our immune system is capable of remembering COVID-19 and producing a lasting immunity." I am sure that the 1000 Americans who died today and the 170 thousand who have died so far will take great comfort in hearing that. Oh, wait a minute, they can't hear it because they are DEAD. "Some ofyou may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make," is said by Lord Farquaad

[@aeasthouse316]

K Shred you always so morbid and negative? You must be fun having around. Gave you some good news, yes signs show we can get herd immunity and at least there won’t be 1 million Americans dying. So the good news if for the 99.95% Americans who still alive. I’m a 99.95% cup full sort of guy, you a 0.05% of bitter empty cup guy. More good news, you have room for improvement. Just go for it

[@kshred3043]

​@@aeasthouse316 I guess I have a problem with people who think that, because there are only 170 thousand instead of a million, 170 thousand deaths (and counting) is somehow good and an acceptable price to pay in order to achieve herd immunity. Especially because the New Zealand (and Chinese, etc) experience has shown that there is a better way. Extrapolating the NZ results (which is of course not that appropriate to do because the numbers in NZ are so small), if the US had followed the New Zealand 'go early go hard' model then it would have had only 22*330/5 = 1450 deaths. That is a factor of 117 less. Yes, the immunity studies are good news. But good news for herd immunity via a vaccine. It is morally and intellectually indefensible to use then to advocate herd immunity via letting the virus run rampant. It didn't have to be this way. I wonder if you will change your position if you or a loved one succumbs to the virus. BTW, I am not bitter. I love life and I want to continue to enjoy it without having it snuffed out by the selfish and the willfully ignorant.
