Incredibly detailed and informative video, Stu! You'll help thousands of people over the years with this video series. I'm going to attempt a small garden wall and this video will be most helpful. Thank you for the great content!
Thanks for the excellent demonstration. I'm trying to learn brick masonry, but our local vocational college isn't offering their brick course since the pandemic. Your videos are a huge help.
I’ve been a master builder in New Zealand for forty odd years and Yet! Here I am now realising that there was a lot more to laying bricks. The old saying to each their own trades, now makes a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing your skills
Stu also the frog or holes in engineering bricks are there to help them bond better more surface area for mortar to grab onto. you are also right about less material. Great vid as always dude
When I went on a course, they mentioned using a key brick to gauge the lowest point do we still need to do this. (PS your vids are much much better than the course ever was!)
Brilliant, really useful information. Could you do a video on setting up your line and show how you move it up the wall to make sure your bricks are straight etc.
Stu us non contractor types find your videos relaxing to watch, so film ALL YOUR WORK with a background camera and just upload those semi raw videos without worrying about too much editing maybe just relaxing music or even asmr videos to generate more views 😉
Also, your awesome design on the wall pillars got a million views? so maybe post more exotic builds like that whenever you do them or think of cool designs!!! And Never stop never stopping!!! 😁
Amazing video! Please, keep on going. I’ve got 2 questions. Probably, you can cover it in the future videos: - how to properly set up and work with a string. - how to prevent mortar of getting dry too fast after a contact with a brick? In fact, my mortar gets almost sand dry after a contact with a brick. I have super dry bricks or should use any additive to a mortar?
It's funny you that use the golf club analogy for holding your trowel because the flick you do at 9:28 is the same fundamental flick that drummers do with their drum sticks when playing paradiddles and snare rolls
Greetings from down under. Fabulous series of vids, but the subtitles are hilarious. Some sort of voice to text I gather, which is obviously struggling with the accent.

What sort of mix should you use for diy repairs in the cellar of an old victorian terraced house ?
Stu also the frog or holes in engineering bricks are there to help them bond better more surface area for mortar to grab onto. you are also right about less material. Great vid as always dude

Ideal for fast learning
Wish I had decent bricky like you South Wales

When I went on a course, they mentioned using a key brick to gauge the lowest point do we still need to do this. (PS your vids are much much better than the course ever was!)

And Never stop never stopping!!! 😁
Helped me a lot in college thanks
Thank you , Stu .
Amazing video! Please, keep on going.

- how to prevent mortar of getting dry too fast after a contact with a brick? In fact, my mortar gets almost sand dry after a contact with a brick. I have super dry bricks or should use any additive to a mortar?
Have you figured out how to prevent the mortar from drying too fast?
My mortar is also not as sticky or paste-like as shown in the video.
@@teo-medesi hei. Yes, I have
I add 1 part of lime, to the mix (5x sand + 1x cement + 1x lime) and plasticiser ( acc to manual).
Legend stu. I'm over your end for the weekend shame I couldn't visit the workshop
Thank you for lesson
Mate you are awesome... thanks for a great video.. 👍 I was about to pay ridiculous money todo a course
Great vid for us wanting to have a go
Cheers Andy
Good to learn new skills
Awesome. Time for me to go and screw this up.
Thanks for sharing.
Loving these vids mate
Thank you 👍
Only sand and lime? No cement?
никогда не клал кирпичи, но все равно смотрю твои видео, они отличные. мечтаю когда-нибудь попробовать сложить что- нибудь
Павел М , не жди, а попробуй. Сложить на себя 4-6 кирпичиков - нереальный опыт
It's funny you that use the golf club analogy for holding your trowel because the flick you do at 9:28 is the same fundamental flick that drummers do with their drum sticks when playing paradiddles and snare rolls
Nice! Do a tutorial video on laying and flushing up bricks to the line!!
Your mix, 4 sand one lime.... No cement?
Nice one Stu , keep it up mate , love watching your videos. Can’t you get KC to lay some bricks 🧱 👍👍👍
Привет! Как кельма маршалтаун? Хороший инструмент?
Keep up the good work
Awesome Stu but no tapping of the level!!!
235 fife stone abit heavy for down and up unless your the Hulk.
Какой состав учебного раствора?
