I have a pair that I've had for over 40 years. I wire wheeled em a while back and cleaned them up and put some oil on em to stop the rust. I used to carry them a horseback while ridding pastures, never knew when you might need em!
Congrats on 25K! Well deserved my friend. Been watching you for a couple years now. You are the one that got me into enjoying tool restorations! I hope to be watching your videos for many years to come!
Congratulations on 25K! That's awesome and earned! I havent touched many but the diamond tools I have and have held.. are noticeably well crafted! Made for men, by men kind of tool! Anyhoot, I certainly proud I started doing video of all my junk and even prouder to be and feel like im in the circle with all yall great folks! Have fun at jacktown and thank ya!
Great job on 25000. There are still 150 million yet to find your site/ Your site is the only one of over 250+ that I wait for every other day. Keep up the great work.
You deserve every subscriber! If even more subscribed the world would most certainly be a happier place! Beeing from Europe we have a bit of a headstart over US with regard to old things. The oldest building in my town is from the middle ages, around 1000 years old. It houses a fancy restaurant. The church started construction in 1270 and was finished 1435. Imagine the wait for that! We also have runestones scattered around that are 1000+ years old. You'd think we would take care and protect them but no, they just stand around wherever. The state clean them sometimes though.
I’m British so my sense of humour runs to the dry/sarcastic. I am relieved though John, that you are able to translate and understand that it comes from a point of friendship and not because I’m a jerk…….well, most of the time heh heh
Congrats on 25k subs John!! Beautiful job on the fencing pliers. You know that type is my favorite. Gonna miss the Jacktown show this weekend. Visiting my son in college for his Bday.
Nice job! Now if my stuff will come on I'd start doing a little maintenance myself. I've got enough so's I can swap back and forth and might make another grinder but we'll see. Go Upstate and enjoy everything out of the city! Take the GF and listen to Greg Lake a little. I have been and didn't realize he was the one that did the '21st Century' till not too long ago. WOW, what a piece! GBWYall and Thanks, John and we stick around because we're scared we might miss something!
Congratulations from UK John, and thanks once again for all the good-humoured, educational entertainment you bring to us three times a week. Your thoughtful preparation and hard work is very much appreciated.
Congratulations SC! You should have 100k subs in my book! But you'll grow faster the bigger you'll get! I can't resist the old Diamalloy tools either! They seem to hold up really well over time.
Congratulations on reaching 25,000 subscribers and thanks for all the great videos and knowledge that you give the channel! I along with many others look forward to your videos every week. Thanks again!
Congrats on 25K! It's fun to watch some Vintage SC Restorations and see the changes that experience has created. Looking forward to learning many more tips from the Master!
I have both my grandfather's and great uncle's adjustable Diamond wrenches from when they worked for Whirlpool, St. Paul, MN. My home state made good tools.
Congratulations John. 25000 subscribers is a huge achievement. I love the channel and never miss an episode. I watch it here in Australia 🇦🇺 first thing in the morning while I’m having my breakfast. Thanks again mate. Your show is one of the highlights of my week.
You are allowed to congratulate the hottest to 25K. I love your channel because you always learn something new. Waiting with excitement as you renovate an E A. Berg pliers.
Congratulation on the 25k subscriber mark! I have learned a lot from your channel and I have restored a screwdriver and a small nesting hammer because of your tutorials. Thanks for all the information you provide as it has helped out so much.
John, Congratulations on 25k. I watch your videos every week. It’s such a nice distraction from the daily routine. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, you sir are a national treasure. Regards, J
Congratulations on the 25K subscribers. I am sure there will be many more to come. Love the channel and always look forward to the videos. Have a great weekend!
Congratulations my brother!!! 25k is a big milestone. Glad to be a part of it. Growing up on the southern border in Arizona you saw those pliers regularly. They’d always be in a truck bed fixing barbed wire fence out there is an ongoing task.
One more…Many years ago, I worked at a bank and had a customer that did house demolition. Many times he brought in old jars full of paper money, coins and other stuff he found in walls. Just wanted to cash it in. Some was the large paper money issued by banks and really old coins. Bought some but wish I kept it. 🤷🏻♂️
Use a pair with an old timer fenceman. At 75 years old he has forgot more then I know . His eyes are as good as the best quality level. They are a must have doing fenceing for acreage. This was not a piece of crap you were working on. Just high quality ice cream. Nice restoration on a must needed tool in the country. Your channel is like watching your favorite shows, you are an entertaining restoration star. Congratulations on your utube channel. I am always looking forward to your next restoration. Thanks again.
25k subs is testament to the quality content and humorous twist that can found here on a regular basis. My home town of Dudley Mass founded in 1730. We had a sign right down the street otherwise i would have never remembered. I have many years experience using fencing pliers back in the day They are a very handy efficient tool for stringing barbed wire 🙂
Lovely as always John! Congratulations on the milestone, keep up the good work!! Thanks for all the lessons and the hours of entertainment, take care!!
Congratulations on 25,000 subscribers! I enjoy all your videos. You are a very genuine person. I look out for your videos every week an you are one of a few creators that I watch all the way to the end of each video. Tinkering in the shop is a favorite for me. So relaxing and fun. I can relate to everything you do. Please keep them coming.
Congratulations on the 25K. You deserve them and more. Always late at night watching. You help me get through my health problems. Stay safe and healthy my friend. Thanks
Congratulations John!! 🙌✨👏 Right On! 👍 The ScoutCrafter Show is the best! Soon WPIX 11 will be showing re-runs at night! 😃 Along with MASH and The Honeymooners. Bang Zoom!
The regular claw hammer, regular pliers, a fence stretcher and a container of staples were with me for building or repairing fence. The bar stretcher was so much easier to work with than a rope stretcher. It was a load so you did not want to walk very far. That is why many kept their fence lines clear so it was easy to get a truck or tractor in. Not many want that kind work these days. Then again check out the cost of installing posts, woven and barbed wire on 40 acres. You could buy a really good used truck for the money or a serious down payment on another property. Hard to believe a barn with hay loft and good fencing would be almost cost prohibitive.
I enjoy collecting Diamalloy and Diamond Calk Horseshoe tools because they remind me of Klein Tools. Both Midwestern USA made, and both known for their quality types of pliers. Klein was geared toward telephone and electrical wires, while Diamond stuck with farmer type tools. It's always fun to find a Diamond with the horseshoe logo on it.
You were the first channel I ever subscribed on! Around the time you did that pair of Italian garden shears, can't remember how many subscribers you had back then. Your video's have helped me through some rough personal times and I can't thank you enough for that. Have a great weekend!! Really still hope to make it to one of these show someday.
Wow. That tool is absolutely stunni9ng now. Diamalloy tools are my favorite and this ism one I do not have so I will be hunting for one. Thanks I enjoyed the video.
Hey John , i like goof ball tool restoration channels! 🤣😂Congrats on reaching 25,000 subscribers! The lineman pliers look like they would just melt in your hands. Beautiful!👍🇺🇸Roger
Up here in upstate NY in Schenectady we have the stockade which was burned by the French and Indians in 1690. A few of the original houses still stand! They did a dig in the front yard of one of them years ago and found tons of clam and oyster shells of all things. 7 human skeletons were found under a park nearby too. Lots of history!
The pliers look terrific. Well done as usual. In my home town in the UK there is a Tudor mansion, built in the mid 1500's. A good place to bury something if you buried it deep enough in the late 1400's. I have a conflict tomorrow with Jacktown and my local wood turning club. Sad that I will not be able to go to Jacktown, but looking forward to rubbing shoulders with the turning club members. Our meetings are presently via Zoom. We may have the first live meeting at local Woodcraft store in December. I hope this holds, it will be another good sign of life returning to normal. Dave.
Congrats on 25,000 John!! You should be pleased on the amount of people you are pleasing. Great restoration on the fence pliers and I like the Scoutcrafter Red you added. Have a good time tomorrow and bring something good back 😃 Also I liked the pros and cons on the 2 different belt sanders. Thank You for sharing
Coincidentally, I just put a couple Diamond wrenches into my rotation. An 8in and a 4in adjustable(maybe the cutest wrench ever made, besides my Ridgid 6 inch!!!) This vid has got me excited to get them done, thank you. And congrats on 25K brotha!
The fencing pliers look amazing Scoutcrafter! Those Merit pliers look like they would merit a redo. 😜 The way it has changed and grown where I live, I would have had to bury my treasure in another state. Texas is full folks. Take care.
HI Scout. ...congrats on 25K! I smiled when you talked about going back in time and burying coins. I had the same thought as a kid. I used to also think about early American furniture - buy it new, store it in a warehouse for a couple hundred years, and then have brand new antiques worth $$$$. I never worked out the warehouse ownership and associated up keep etc. Have A happy day!
Congratulations mate, 25,000 hey? It’s just the beginning and we’ll be celebrating your 100,000 in no time. Great restoration on the pliers. I have no use for them but will buy some when I come across them to add to my tool wall. Too nice not to own. You’re right with improvements in our skills. I have re-done many a restoration because my earlier attempts were pitiful. And I still finish something and then think, “I should have done.....”. Oh well, next time. Great episode and loved the differences in photos of the same place. That’s human nature, change and reform things to suit their lifestyle, taste or trend. Great job mate, looking forward to every video you make.
Congratulations Scoutcrafter on your first 25,000 subscribers! You draw people in with your skills, collections, knowledge, caring for people and the Dake. Best wishes growing your channel, but I hope that you stay the same. You read every comment and respond which is amazing. I wish I lived nearer so that I could visit with you.
Hi John. I really enjoy your channel. Been a subscriber for a awhile and enjoy the tool restoration and the videos of the flea markets and steam shows. My Dad used a lot of different tools and I do also. You have restored many tools I never knew about and I now look for them. Congrats on the 25k subscribers and keep up the fine videos.
Funny story about buried treasure. I have this crazy great uncle who got rich marketing colloidal silver machines. He was always an odd guy. When he passed a few years ago, in lieu of a will, I received from the lawyer a carefully drawn map that was supposed to show the position of his gold, which he converted all his money into out of some apocalypse fears. He had buried them 6 ft deep in PVC tubes. Unfortunately, the various trees and rocks that he had used as markers were pretty difficult to suss out on his 12 acres. Let's just say that a lot of holes have been dug, for a lot of years, no treasure. I still own that land and go camping on it twice a year and dig a few holes while I'm there.
I messed up and forgot the best detail. The reason he buried everything so deep was because he had been an RF engineer earlier in life and had some kind of theory / expertise on the effectiveness of metal detectors and their potential improvement over time. For this reason, he buried all the tubes terribly deep and vertical, so that radar would have a hard time detecting it
@@ScoutCrafter I cannot wait! My story is actually quite a bit longer funnier and more convoluted but it didn't seem fitting for a comment section. I'm confident you have seen my great-uncle on many talk shows, he and his wife both turned blue from ingesting colloidal silver too much. Literally. Turned. Blue. His wife was a tiny little redheaded Irish girl, that blue skin looks really grim on that skin type
Congratulations on the 25k it’s much deserved. I was watching you cut that hanger and though, I bet there are hundreds of those little cutoffs, between wire hangers and zip ties, in every corner of your shop. Keep up the great work and soon you will be at 50k. Hope you have a good weekend.
Congratulations on 25k we have came a long way. I been here since about the 10k mark. It's one of my favorite channels. The people here are great! Have a great weekend everyone. Be safe out there 🐱👍
Congratulations on 25k. Well deserved. I've learned a lot and had alot of fun. I have a Channelock fencing tool with the blue dipped vinyl handles. It's a nice high quality tool but I like the knurling on yours better. This is a common tool to see in hardware stores in the West. Looking forward to more educational and fun videos. Thanks
Congrats on reaching 25K ! 50K is just around the corner. Those Dimaloy are awesome. I’m envious of that Baldor, if you want to lighten your load let me know and I will take it off your hands. 😁
Fencing is important out here in Arizona. Where I am if cattle come by your house and damage things like lawn sprinklers, it is your responsibility to keep the cows out of your yard, not the ranchers'. I have a roll of barbed wire in the garage from when I first came here and had to rent a place way out of town.
Not a long time subscriber but I find myself waiting for these episodes, I drive a lot for work. I'd have to say you gave me the confindence to use my flap disk a lot more when I'm restoring. Even use it on my rough shape hand planes. Love this channel.
Hey congratulations on the 25k subs and thanks for always making interesting and entertaining videos it means more than you might know. Always something to look forward to. Again 25k a great milestone you deserve it keep up the good work!
I have a pair that I've had for over 40 years. I wire wheeled em a while back and cleaned them up and put some oil on em to stop the rust. I used to carry them a horseback while ridding pastures, never knew when you might need em!
Congrats on reaching your considerable subscriber milestone. Nice restoration on that set of Diamolloy fence pliers.
You never cease to amaze me. Wow. That tool is stunning.
I very much appreciate you showing your early restoration, as well.
Thanks for the showing of your old restoration......gives me hope for my own improvement 🛠
Congrats on 25K! Well deserved my friend. Been watching you for a couple years now. You are the one that got me into enjoying tool restorations! I hope to be watching your videos for many years to come!

Congratulations on the 25K! You sit a very high bar. Thanks for all you do to promo the restoration community. Plus you do amazing work.
Sliding into Saturday. Rolling smoke and flipping over trying to steer.
I’m British so my sense of humour runs to the dry/sarcastic. I am relieved though John, that you are able to translate and understand that it comes from a point of friendship and not because I’m a jerk…….well, most of the time heh heh
Congratulations on 25K subs. Great job! Very nice restoration of the Pliers.
Thank you for all the wisdom and fun. Really do enjoy your channel.

I believe the way your comment section is civil and supportive is a reflection of your personality. I think you are the Bob Ross of tool restoration!
25k subs is testament to the quality content and humorous twist that can found here on a regular basis.
My home town of Dudley Mass founded in 1730. We had a sign right down the street otherwise i would have never remembered.
I have many years experience using fencing pliers back in the day They are a very handy efficient tool for stringing barbed wire 🙂
I'm sure my fellow subscribers will join me in raising a glass/mug/whatever we're drinking from to the next 25,000!
Cheers!
Lovely as always John! Congratulations on the milestone, keep up the good work!! Thanks for all the lessons and the hours of entertainment, take care!!

Congrats on 25K. When I first tuned in, I think it was "post wire-brush evaluation" that hooked me.
Way to go with that 25000 that’s great! Brilliant finish on those pliers too so amazing congratulations and very well deserved! 👍

Congrats on reaching 25K ! 50K is just around the corner. Those Dimaloy are awesome. I’m envious of that Baldor, if you want to lighten your load let me know and I will take it off your hands. 😁
CONGRATULATIONS!! 25.000-thats a small towns worth of people following your channel.
Congrats on 25K!
Fencing is important out here in Arizona. Where I am if cattle come by your house and damage things like lawn sprinklers, it is your responsibility to keep the cows out of your yard, not the ranchers'. I have a roll of barbed wire in the garage from when I first came here and had to rent a place way out of town.
Congratulations on the milestone Scout!
Great that you hit 25k John,well done!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎
Congratulations on the 25k man! That is so awesome. I'm really happy that such a niche channel can grow this big!
Not a long time subscriber but I find myself waiting for these episodes, I drive a lot for work. I'd have to say you gave me the confindence to use my flap disk a lot more when I'm restoring. Even use it on my rough shape hand planes. Love this channel.
Thanks so much Walt!!!!
Congratulations on the 25K subs. I enjoy the show and the back stories especially.
