The freshness of his designs continue to surprise and delight an ever-growing number of private and corporate collectors of his work. His ability to challenge the predictable function of the basic form of a bowl has led him to unite wood with different materials such as metals, fused glass and stone, creating a dramatic fusion of effects.

Scott is committed to using only windfallen or diseased native timber. The bulk of the timber is air seasoned for a minimum of 1-2 years, and is then transferred to a kiln to be dried further over a period of weeks. Scott never designs a piece before starting work on it The form of the final design is developed through working with the particular blank and interpreting the grain. Once the basic shape is established though turning on a lathe, any decorative features are then performed. Scott not only likes his work to be visually stimulating, he also likes to arouse the sense of touch which is achieved by incorporating in-laid metals, fused glass and carving.
