    @13:00 - Personal Protection Equipment - As a retired pipe fitter / plumber, I firmly agree with Rodians about PPE.
    A professional goes home at the end of the day without damaged body parts. Don't argue with people who recommend
    against using PPE. Nod at them silently, as if they are giving you sound advice, and use PPE anyways.
    The professional uses PPE whenever necessary. For example, if there is loud equipment, or somebody pounding with
    a hammer on the job, use ear plugs or ear muffs. If you have to work on your knees, wear knee pads. ( Get the cheaper
    kind with Velcro fasteners. ) Have a plastic bag with cheap face masks in your lunch bucket ready for when you need them.
    Wear safety glasses or at least sunglasses to protect your eyes. I learned all this the hard way.

    Hi Rodian.
    Have been working my way through some of your beginner tutorials and today I laid my first ever bricks.
    Just a small start, 4 bricks wide and 4 rows tall, just to get me going, and I loved it!
    So, many thanks for taking the time to publish these videos. You inspired me to finally give it a go.
    Cheers.

    Love your videos worth watching the adverts for
    If you could do a video on how you like to cut the dpc trays on the ground level at the corners that would make a great video where you have to overlap the flaps and stick together with double sided waterproof tape then gaffer tape over the joins mabe you have a quicker solution
    Also when you get to breaks in the cavity eg door ways do you just lap tray into last brick or half brick like you would above a lintel or is there something else you can do so you can take the tray right up to the end of the opening and still form a tray

    Hi Rodian wached the video about tools .In my opinion one ese tial tool you missed out on is the humble PENCIL,you won't get far without one. I would also swap lump hame r for a brick one (far more usefull). Must admit like watching your vidios . Pommy Pete😎😎😎

    Little tip on the wood handle club hammer: If you know you need to use it later the day, put it head first in a quarter bucket of water and let it sit for 20 mins. The handle timber head will swell up slightly and the head will be fixated as if brand new. When you go for lunch, leave it in the bucket again. I had one for six years and by doing that I didnt have any problems. But I do agree, be careful with those, because they can get loose on you and you don´t want to drop a hammer head down a scaffolding with your mates walking around down below. Cheers!

    Hi
    Can you make a video on how to prepare uneven surfaces ( in my case concrete) for bricklaying.
    Can I make up with more mortar to level it up? Chrers

  • @johncoppock3823
    @johncoppock3823 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just add explanation of how to make a gauge stick (considering variation in the bricks chosen) and a reminder of your corner block video. Perhaps do a specific video on gauging, with three different brick types.

    safety tip, the hitting end of the brickset should be cleaned up, those splintered ends can pop off and penetrate skin, eyes, etc. plus it is a safety fine is the States. Great video's I enjoy them.

    Just looking at the comments about grinding the mushroom head off the bolster dont as u change the strength of the bolster when u reheat it bad move haha instead use a file to get rid of the mushroom .dont buy a wooden handled lump hammer it has no give and is the main reason of carpel tunnel injury among bricklayers from the shock up the arm from regular use go with a fibre glass handle designed for shock absorbsion another thing that pisses me off young apprentices not being told to get a square face lump hammer and using a round panel beaters hammer to break bricks and blocks.anyone ever work with a bricklayer with a round faced lump hammer knows what im on about

Marshalltown were looked down on a little by the guys l worked with and when l needed a new trowel persuaded me to look at a Philadelphia "W.Rose". Still have and use my Marshalltown trowels but W.Rose is now the trowel for me.
