Reply to comment by RLDSXD in TIL that Bob Ross worked as a carpenter to support himself, during which time he lost his left index finger in an accident, an injury he later hid from viewers most of the time with his paint palette. by FracasPocus

Well, just like Jesus, it’s a good thing Bob had something to fall back on, because they were both terrible carpenters.

I must say I’m terrified of the thoughts that must reside within the heads of the most successful carpenters, and pray their talent keeps them well-compensated and pacified.
