Get well soon Scott.
“Get on the mend mate.”
Safe travels to you & the misses.
Hey Scott
The square base is wider and around 22mm so you can mark half way or centre on a 45mm thick piece of timber as most framing is dressed for this, really helpful when pitching a roof
Tripped over at a silent disco fracturing your ankle. I love you videos mate like really enjoy them I'd like to work with you one day in nz. But that is the most Scott brown way of fracturing your ankle I've ever heard. I wouldn't expect anything less
“fractured my ankle at a silent disco” is my favorite Capital Cities song 🎶
You young guys are so lucky to have all those amazing tools to assist you, its different game nowadays.
The good old German folding rule, often misused as barbecue tongs.
Good video. Chicago screws can open up new worlds of design without need to hire a leatherworker. I have a totally customized Frankenstein tool belt setup, comprising components from Occidental, Diamondback, Akribis, Atlas 46, Buckaroo, and even Menards. My wife, a seamstress, has even indulged my obsession by working through five evolving versions of a work vest, which I have designed to serve as a wearable field desk, strictly limited to small layout and marking tools, along with notepad and cell phone. Velcro pockets for thin magnets (removable for washing) are sewn into strategic spots so I don't need to put so many miscellaneous fasteners, etc. into my mouth at awkward moments. Your daily carry and mine share many preferences. Small world...
*at a silent disco*
Scott:
*trips*
Scott:
Nice to see someone have their tape On The proper side. I always find it funny when people keep their tape on the same side as they’re handed. To be quick and efficient you need to have your dominant hand ready to use your marking tool. Your square has a larger heel because it’s a better set up for framing when your wood has more wane on it, it’s still able to reach deep enough to reference the perpendicular surface of the wood.
Hope you recover soon Scott have an awesome road trip and stay safe buddy.
Just ordered the toughbuilt tool belt, I like the modular clip system 👌
Good choice Bro.
A note on the Milwaukee speed square... Here in the US, 2x4 framing lumber can have a rounded edge, the wider end on that square helps to get a nice square purchase on the boards to get clean marks and cuts. I have a few cheapo squares from Empire and Harbor Freight, but after I got that Milwaukee square the others sleep on the bench. I got mine in a two pack around Christmas time for about ten bucks. Good buy.
Have a great, and well deserved break! I'd be interested in seeing you pull back the curtain a little on the video side of your work. Do you have some "no pencil marks" principles that make your videos what they are? For me they are set apart by a lot of attention to the photography - each shot tends to be really beautiful. And in the DIY genre the opposite tends to be true -- it's usually just about filming the process with zero attention to the form. There's also a lovely consistent laid-back vibe - the music, the interstitial scenes, the low stress workplace attitude. I love it and I bet the rest of your subscribers do too, but I wonder if it's as satisfying from the creation end - that is, do you find yourself getting curious about experimenting with different styles?
This is an amazing comment! All of the things I only subconsciously thought about Scott Brown videos, and all of the questions I didn’t know I needed answering. Good work man
Oh yeah, I'll second (third?) this!
Absolutely agree. It's so jarring when I watch a random carpentry video and the audio is all off, or the editing is clanky, or the person is fumbling with their words. It might be easy to underappreciate how much work Scott clearly puts into each video but it's why I subscribed nearly 3 years ago
I did that back In the day, bolt my straps to my belt. Remember, some people put a rivet on the X on the straps on the back... the suspenders come with one. I keep my hammer in the front loop, you need to use a wooden handle I like axe handle 12oz stiletto titanium
That little Hultafors prybar is one of my most used tools I have! My initial thoughts was that it would be mode or less useless due to its size. It proves me wrong all the time! Love it!
Enjoy your healing-trip!
Love the ACC ad before the video started with you hobbling in.
If Scott Brown falls down at a silent disco and nobody is around, does it make a noise?
I tend to cut more & more timber these days using the speed square as the saw guide. It saves a heap of time going out to where the mitre saw is set up & is very accurate.
Enjoy your time off Scott, you deserve it for all the work you do.
Hey Scott, love your channel. Started watching it when I started my apprenticeship 3 years ago. Also a residential Auckland builder. Did the same injury (avulsion fracture and 2 torn tendons (maybe get an ultrasound too!)) 4 weeks ago playing football. Difficult not being mobile but enjoy the time off, it'll get better soon.
Keep at it, you're a legend.
Something consistent I see in veteran tool bag lay outs is that things have been parred down heavily to what actually gets used consistently. Despite the trade apprentices always feel obliged to make up for inexperience with more tools. As experience grows, tools get shed.
There's a fine line between carrying less in the pouch and not bringing what you need to do your job. There's nothing more frustrating than working with someone who always asks to borrow the same thing. If you're asking to borrow the something more than 3 times go to the bloody store or take it back out of the shed.
I hope you have a speedy recovery Scott, I feel your Pain! I rolled my ankle two weeks ago steeping out my back door onto a low step, took a trip to A+E for an x ray and thankfully I didnt have the broken bone issue you have so didnt have to wear the boot. Ive torn the ligaments though so my whole foot and shin have been swollen and bruised every colour in the rainbow. All the best from Scotland mate.
Awesome. Thank you. I have a very similar all leather occidental setup, but for drywall. I have a little leather/metal hook thing for a gun. It and the last loop of my suspenders sit nearest to open end of the belt and would like to fall off. I'd been using a zip tie to keep it all on. BUT I actually have some of those Chicago bolts and didn't really thing to use them to fasten it all together. Very awesome as now I'll actually be able to take my belt apart if needed without wasting zip ties.
It's like Psychology Lecture 1: If Scott fell over in a silent disco and fractured his ankle, would he make a sound?
Hope you have a speedy recovery
I am a bit too intrigued by this comment, a bit more than I should be 🤔😂
The bear that shit in the forest would like to know 😂
@@themaconeau 😂
Sounds more like a philosophy lecture 😂
Hi Scott. Still a great video three years on.
Iv got exactly the same setup. Bags and braces. I love the bags, but for the life of me I can’t get on with the braces. Just find they did in when bending over/kneeling down.
I like your idea of fixing them in place.
Thanks for you videos mate.

amazing Scott, I use the "can he hang a door?" on a daily basis now. You guys enjoy this couple of weeks, much deserved it!
Scott, make a good recovery, health first👍💪🇨🇵. Don't worry your fan base will waiting for you.
I have the leather only straps, but instead of using the leather loop in the front I hook the front of the suspenders on the center of each actual pouch.
It was a game changer for me, and lasted close to 10 years, still going strong.
I found it brought the front of the bags up so they would't sag much. Way more comfortable in my opinion!
Counsel: You can't have loose cables lying around on the floor, people will trip over them and get hurt, you should cover them up.
Sky Tower does like the Counsel says, so no one will get injured
Scott comes for a night out and falls over the cable bridge, covering the cable the Counsel says he might get hurt from falling in.
Have a nice trip down south, and get better soon.
I think that hanging the door quote is more valuable for young tradies than you can imagine.
Hope you heal up soon. Thanks for all the wonderful content!
I was literally thinking of this question a week ago while sanding a floor!
Heal up fast and heal up strong Scott!
Speedy recovery Scott. Enjoy your trip!
Got the hultafos small bar a few weeks ago, SO useful!
One of those tools you wonder why you didn’t get it sooner.. plus pretty cheap.
Get well soon!
Take good care of that ankle. I had the same injury when I was 19, now 46 I’m suffering with arthritis in the same ankle. Have a good trip 👍
Quick tip. Get some boiled linseed oil on your dalluge hammer, put it on, let it dry for like 5 to 15 minutes and then wipe it off. If you don't then the oil will set on the handles surface.
Putting your hammer back in hook reminded me of a samurai warrior returning his sword to the sheath.
He was tripping at the disco! Haha.
Get well soon!
One to many disco biscuits
Pretty cool how your kit seems to selected to be light weight yet full function.
Would love to see a video on how you go about pricing a job!
Greetings from California 🙋♀️ my husband and I are enjoying your videos !!!! I ordered the belt for him for Christmas 🎄 it will be under the tree 🌲 🎁 I shall order the shoulder straps soon their brilliant !! Hope your foot heals soon … MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎁🧰🛠🪚🎚 Cheers 🥂
Milwaukee speed square has a wider base that is offset so you can use it to scribe things at two common offsets. Marking your Quarks for example.
Scott. Have a brilliant, relaxing and well deserved break on the South Island. And " Ouch"! Speedy recovery. Oh and as always brilliant video and content. Stay safe.
Enjoy being down in the mighty South, Scott. Rain all weekend scheduled so no long runs, aye.
I bought the hultafor chisel when I got my first pair of snickers trousers, tbh I didn’t like it much at all because of the double bevel. I soon replaced it with the Morakniv chisel and that has been an essential tool on every job, highly recommended
Hope you feel better soon. Have a great vacation
Have a great vacation. Heal well. And, thanks for listing all the tools in your tool belt.
Thx for video and wish you well, hope not in pain✌🏻
A friendly tip for ya….hope don’t mind
0:08 I’ve got one of those “pump up air compression” boots. Broke right foot while back and had to wear for 8 weeks. Then went to a “shoe” for 4-6 weeks, and after that, back to my reg orthotic shoes…..hurt paying for orthotic shoes and inserts; as I’d rather have paid for new tools, & for the cost; coulda got A lot of new tools.
As uncomfortable has is wearing that boot, does help; just a tip from someone who wore. Be mindful have walking a lot, and it making your normal “gate” diff when walking and working; especially on those “hips” and lower back. If need be, medical massage and a good chiropractor that also is open to “alternative medicine”, as could help mitigate pain a d issues possibly could have down the road.
Hope you get well soon. And have a great time on the South island! All the best from the Netherlands
Great video Scott, glad to see your taking time to heal up.
Here in the US they never want to give you time to heal up.
Here in NZ, we have a govt owned insurance company called Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC). So Scott will be paid 80% of his normal earnings, for as long as he needs to take time off.
I keep magnets in the pencil slot on the suspenders. Really handy
No coffee will not make you a better carpenter but it's nice in the mornings
I just ordered the diamondback Denali tool belt setup, super excited
Your videos always make me happy
Get well soon, i found the Milwaukee silver tips dont last but the black tips are pretty good. I have gone through 4 tips in 10 days just doing light diy (yes i am straight on and stop the impact before pulling off the screw)
Have a good rest and hope the ankle heals quick. See you soon buddy!
I just got this system from watching your videos! It’s been about 4 weeks w it and I get excited every time I get to wear it! :D
Can he hang a door? 🤣
That is awesome...
Recover quickly lad and enjoy your time away!
Cheers from 🇨🇦
Mike 🇨🇦🍁
Hope you heal up fast. Enjoy the time off, even if it wasn't planned.
Hope you heal up soon Scott, trust being less mobile doesn't frustrate you too much
Love your video. You’re extremely talented and I enjoy watching each and everyone of your videos
Enjoy the trip, speedy recovery 🙏
Bro, you back yet?! 🤣 This has been the longest 2 weeks of my life, I need another ep of SBC!!! Hope that injuries on the mend, but yeah, if you could hook us up another episode at your earliest convenience, all 271k followers would greatly appreciate it 🤙🏽🤣🤣🤣
I was literally searching youtube for this type of video last week. you read my mind! Thanks for the insight!
Enjoy your time away Scott & Jess - it was an exciting episode. Speedy recovery 🙂👍
Have a great break!!!! (LOL) Please make a video about your holiday too!
Nice video. I run a very similar setup. I pieced my bags together so I have the 3 pouch version of your left bag and the 2 pouch version of your right without the little tape holder thingy. I did switch to the diamondback belt which kind of has 2 belts to keep bags from flying off and having to play 100 nail pickup every time I'm trying to put on my belt. Before I got that belt I did the same thing that you did with the occidental belt. I also mounted a diamondback hammer holster to my right bag. It took a bit to get used to since I ran my loop in the back for 10+ years. It's especially nice when you have something you're holding overhead and sometimes that hammer being in the back can get tricky to reach. But really the only tool differences are that I don't carry the little saw/knife or a folding rule and I run one of the flat scraper style trim bars instead of the little prybar. That was one of the best things I started carrying around, I use it for a chisel, scraper, a flat punch, obviously prying. Just a great all around tool for every type of carpentry. But from a fellow old skateboarding carpenter Get yourself healed up and have a great little vacation.
Hope you get better soon Scott and enjoy you time off.👍👍
Gonna miss ur videos this weeks man. Have fun in ur vacation and i hope the recovery will be quick
You’re kidding??...classic, the tool belt set up is awesome 👏 I also carry a left and right bevel marking knife for joinery quality cuts.
All the best wee ripper 😎
Enjoy your trip bro, i'll keep my eye out for you in Christchurch, i'd love to buy you a pint!
I hope you make a full and speedy recovery mate
Scott, there are small neodymium magnets with a hole in the middle. Use Chicago screws instead of a glue.
Include Central Otago on your itinerary Scott. Lots of interesting building going on in Wanaka, and down the valleys (Cromwell, Alexandra ...)
So I've been using the Milwaukee square too. The biggest thing I've noticed about it being thicker is it's easier to pick up
Ouch, sorry about the ankle. Hope you heal quickly.
Get well soon Scott and enjoy the break
Hope you have a speedy recovery
Silent Disco?!? I have so many questions!!!! 😁 Ahhh, thanks for the explanation at the end.
Speedy recovery good sir , and god speed.
Get well soon bro, thanks for all the great vids. I've learnt so much from you. Peace and love brother.
get well soon. was waiting for you to say the moon boot was a Milwaukee 🤣🤣🤣
Good luck with the foot. I mashed one 10 years or so ago it’s still not great now. I have same bags on diamond back belt. Use diamond back hammer holster and modified it to take a Swanson 250mm metric speed square
Have a great holiday Scott and Jessica 🌼
Hope you a speedy recovery!!!
get better Scott 👍 and enjoy your trip
In the US, there’s speed shooting. But with Scott Brown, there’s speed squaring. Watch out before squaring up with them!
We wish you a speedy recovery Scott ,old jimmy australia
Enjoy thy days off, keep us posted.
Hi Scott if your going near Queenstown there is a nursery near there called spring burns nursery selling a vast range of plants my daughter and her boyfriend are the owners your more than welcome to take a look .👍
Get well soon Scott, enjoy your videos
My brother managed to miss the last two steps walking down some stairs. Landed so hard as he tried to steady himself, his thigh muscle contracted so fully it tore the ligaments off of the knee cap. Yikes. Don’t walk down stairs reading your phone, people!
Best of luck on the rehab, mate.
Keep up the videos. Sorry about your ankle! Hope you’re well soon!
Speedy recovery mate and have a lovely time away.
Hope your ankle heals soon scott. Take care.
Look forward to the next video.
Another super video Chris. Could you please do a short video to show how to notch deck boards around irregular angled deck posts?
Recover quickly and enjoy unaspected time of.
But take it easy with that ankle. I endured same and now five years later still bothers me being electrician.
Greetings from Netherlands.
The Hultafors chisel knife is good for prying and such since it is grinded from both sides ( and thus have a strong edge). Mora makes a chisel knife that is single grinded and works better for chiseling work. I therefore tend to use both 😊
