Welcome to Oregon. Its a bunch of people like this and two or three cities full of tree huggers and hippies.

That's good to hear. My impression of Oregon is based on KZbin, which tends to feature a lot of Portland hippies attacking people and blocking traffic. I know of another KZbinr in Oregon (pretty sure I have the state right) that goes by Wranglerstar. He and this gentleman here are guys that I wish I knew.

jw11432 Portland eugene and Medford are really the only places like that. wranglerstar is somewhere in the mountains to the east of Portland not sure exactly and don't look because I respect his privacy. Scott is dead between Eugene and Medford in Roseburg. it's absolutely beautiful around here. as for geography Oregon is interesting. we have the costal ranges, cascades and the high desert. from the coast ranges to the ocean is a between 20 feet and 20+ miles. it's all temperate forest. between the coastal range and Cascades is the valleys Roseburg and the 3 big cities fall into. fairly moderate but get really nice in the summer. east of the Cascades is the high desert and bend. it's pretty much like nevada out there. lots of circle farms however.

Oregon is an AMAZING place, and I'll include Portland in that assessment. Everyone I've encountered has been incredibly nice, and it's hard to find prettier countryside and coastline. There's just something magical about that place.

Can't say I've had the roughest life, but my dad was a boatswain's mate in the Navy - coming off a farm - and did other physical jobs in his career. My mother was a licensed practical nurse. They both stressed proper body mechanics. Began my work career as a temporary laborer. Used to jump off truck docks until an older worker cautioned me to avoid doing that to protect my back. I made the connection that I only had so many jumps in my back before I'd have problems.

One of the best videos. I am enjoying setting up my first new truck in 31 years. Ford F-350 single rear wheel, diesel, 4wd, crew cab, short bed and it even has air conditioning! For my business bed space is important, but so is clean extra space in the cab for mobile office, clothing and gear for staying at a jobsite for up to 3 days, sensitive tools, photography gear, water, and some grub.

Thank you. It's always good to see someone putting thought into making their job better / easier. I'm forever making up kit for the test work I do to make the job easier, quicker and safer. Recently I've started selling kit I make to others and it's pretty rewarding to be contacted out of the blue by someone wanting to buy my kit. I was told many years ago, out on a job site, by an old guy, 'we're paid to work smarter, not harder' and I always try to follow that.

13 minutes of golden knowledge right there-thank you for all these videos. My only thought on the overall setup might be storing the most frequently used items on the passenger/curb side of the truck so you’re not exposed to as much traffic when parked on the street. I know from other videos you are often on a dedicated worksite or rural area so this is more of a suggestion for urban environments. Love your videos. It’s like getting back lost time with my dad/grandpa. I miss those days with them learning man stuff.

As a GC I can see why you would have that set up. But as a high end finish carpenter in can tell you nothing beats an extended CHEVY/GMC 2500. Sliding door unit. Tons of room, quiet ride, lots of power and I’ve set it up to hold every tool I need for a Mobile remote shop. And still have room for full sheets of plywood or sheet rock. Rain and snow don’t mess up my materials or tools. I can store everything in the custom bins and shelves. I’ve created slide in/out storage containers for specialty tools. Plus I ride in complete comfort and style. Everything has a place, because I built it, I know how it works. I love your channel and videos. I’m constantly learning and challenging my skill set and at 59, I’m still out working the 20 somethings. Mostly because I can show up on time sober. Plus people are willing to pay for skills that work. Not jobs that pay. I take the big and small stuff, and always give more than I’m asked for. Quality has to be first. Speed comes. If it’s right the first time, they figure out it’s worth it. And I never pay to advertise my work skills. My great customers make sure all their friends and family know who did this work. Thanks for sharing. God bless your family!

About 15 years ago, I lived in texas and built flatbed truck bodies from scratch and we would install them as well, sometimes I'd get a guy who knew exactly what he needed out of a flatbed and I would build it to his specs. Learned alot from them as I went along and it grew my wealth of knowledge, this of course was before I became disabled about 10 years ago when I was driving a medium/heavy duty tow truck and got hit by a car. Anyways, just an idea for you here, you could easily take those 2 job box's you have there and cut out the outside facing panel and weld in hinges so that when you open the lid, the face would lay down just like your bottom box's do and it would create a desk like feature along with making it so you wouldn't have to climb up the side of the truck and lift your tools up and over like that.. Would save your back too ;) awsome build for sure and thanks for all the videos you take time to make and share with all of us..

A load of great ideas there, thanks for showing us your rig. This reminds me of little things my dad would do to his work vehicles to make them handy.

I am a disabled 70 year old phone repairman and I just loved this Tool Tank!!! I had a 4X4 Dodge truck that Ma Bell thought I no longer needed in Southeastern Ohio between I 70 and I 77 along the Ohio River. That old truck would climb a tree if the bark didn't give way! But the powers that be in Chicago thought they knew more that the guys in the field did and took them all away and gave most of us bucket trucks.... Now a bucket truck is just great in the city but this area is hills and hollers gravel and mud roads and a bucket truck here is a total joke!!! I spend the last 3 getting stuck almost 3 or 4 times a week!!! I would have just loved to have a truck like the one you showed us!!!

Cool truck and well designed. I have been considering building a flatbed and front bumper for my 93 F250 4x4. So it was with great interest and appreciation that I watched this. Thanks for making my goals seem more attainable!

What is really nice is having a roller on the back of the roof rack. It can be a bit lower than the surface so the load wont rest on it. A roller is great to load lumber and ladders, it is a breeze.

Awesome rig man! We purchased a F550 12ft dump truck & spent tons of time outfitting it with all sorts of tool boxes, extra climb up steps/ladders, extra safety lights, ect....outfitting your daily equipment is very gratifying

Its weird how different people envy different things in life. Growing up in an urban environment, i never would've imagined myself being envious of an old timer and his old work truck. Now, I'm almost thirty, a carpenter by trade and do all kinds of restoration work as hobby; I don't look forward to much in my next thirty years except an even cooler(not nicer) work truck and shop. Thanks for all the amazing video!

Great video, and great work truck Scott! I can’t help but mentioning that the box for your crane is a “C” form, not an LB. Probably the only people that would notice is an industrial electrician like myself.

I don’t comment very often but I had to say thank you for making and posting this vid. I came across it completely by accident but, you provided a huge amount of information and inspiration to continue building my three truck Chevy fleet. I’m looking to build a few rigs that offer welding and mechanical services and there is very limited info on KZbin at this time. Thanks once again

Nice video. I agree about the Ford diesels. I had an 86 F350 with the 6.9 and 4 spd. Loved it. The best part of the video is when he gets in, starts it up (and you hear the engine's growl) and he drives away.

This is awesome. I just got a little F150 4.2 (cheap) with ~112k miles. I'm a step above handyman and step below contractor, so I'm at the point now where I have to build a tool truck. This video gave me so many ideas even if I'm not building a tank. Thanks! Your videos have helped me in my business so much!

How much I admire this guy..truly exceptional as a contractor but he gets it. He loves and appreciates everything he is blessed to have and obviously values his friendships with workers, takes every opportunity to express those good sentiments. He has appreciation for knowledge and wisdom and exemplifies it. I feel the same but what is most relatable is the happiness he receives from it all. I love the drop hitch solution, and stuff like that is like a high five throughout the like minded community. Excellent videos as always.

I really enjoy watching your videos. Even if the topic doesnt does really spark my interest initially. I'll watch it anyways because I like the way you talk and explain things. You've got that old timer swagger. (I mean no disrespect when I say that) listening to you reminds me so much of sitting down and listening to my grandfather. He was a highly respected union brick/block/stone Mason with 42 years served, as well as an avid woodworker in his free time. He always had that cool calm way of explain and sharing his knowledge. Its relaxing and humbling as a young family man trying to find his way in the trades. You set a good example. Your wife should be damn proud to be married to a guy like you. I'm sure that works both ways as well. Thanks for starting this channel sir. You're an inspiration to us young bucks.
