      台灣蓋房子希望能跟你們依樣蓋房子方式能安全能快速可惜台灣房子營造工程建築建造不像你們國外這樣
      看你的影片好療育又歡樂
      可惜台灣沒有台灣蓋房子工程只講求快又不安全
      台灣營造房子土木營造建築行業大缺人都斷層
      台灣蓋房子都累得腰酸背痛
      Hello I am Asian Taiwanese
      The first time I followed you YT video was released early and it’s great
      I hope that when building a house in Taiwan, I can build a house in the same way as you do. It can be safe and fast. Unfortunately, Taiwan’s house construction engineering and construction are not like your overseas ones.
      Watching your videos is so therapeutic and joyful
      It's a pity that Taiwan doesn't have housing construction projects in Taiwan. They only focus on speed and safety.
      Taiwan's house construction and civil engineering construction industry is in desperate need of people.
      Building a house in Taiwan is so tiring that my back aches

    I worked on a new house building scheme in 1968. And it was a well organised and run site with lots of supervision.
    The bricks used to arrive on site by lorry direct from the brickworks in loads of either 5,10 or 20 thousand bricks per load. The bricks would be stored in"brick-sheds" located at strategic points around the site. These sheds had a raised floor, and the housing was constructed of scaffolding with a corrugated iron roof and tarpaulin on the sides, this kept the bricks dry and out of the mud and water, and also allowed for cross ventilation. The bricks could then be transferred from these "storage sheds" to the work areas by the BL`s labourers.
    Timber was stored in a similar fashion to keep it dry and ventilated.
    Oh how times have changed.

    I was a hoddy for a 6 & 1.
    I couldn’t keep up sometimes (on a straight run) and one of the trowels had to drop off the line to help me with loading out. Wasn’t unusual to shovel easily 5-7 ton into the mixer in a day.
    I could almost nosh the exhaust of a manitou when we had one to chuck a bath up.
    I was that fucked in the transit that I felt sick and the fellas used to give me a kick at my stop home. I miss those days. Rows, fights, arguments and weekly hassles.

      My time as a nipper saw me sat in a muck tub in the back of a transit. It was fucking grim. Wet and cold in the winter and hot and dusty in the summer. The wankers used to squirt ketchup and mayo through the holes of panel divider from the front.
      They used to wind me up like fuck because I worked faster when I was raging!
      It sounds like Hell, but they were the best times of my working life so far!

    When I was young, I hated you brickies for the speed you put stuff down, especially when getting paid per brick.
    One of my first site jobs was mixing the mortar for a couple of bricklayer teams, bags and sand on a board, bucket of water, and mixing it with a squaremouth.
    busted my arse to keep up with them, then wheelbarrow and bucket on a line up the scaffold.
    absolutely non-stop.
    Good memories, good crew, but glad I got into dems instead, it's a lot easier bringing the wall down than helping it go up.
