Brilliant! 😂
Lol 😂

@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.
Your doing very well with your channel. Keep up the good work mate!
Cheers buddy 😁👍🧱
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.
Thank you, bricklaying expert. You have helped a human far on the other side of the world.
Very helpful. Thanks
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😎😎😎
May I suggest a project for the future? Okay....let’s build a masonry heater with a bake oven. Maybe even a cooktop. BTW great videos!
I've had my 32 inch Stabila for 45 years, it still does the business. As you say, German engineering is top notch.
Loving the series. I’m learning so as I can build a 20m garden wall (project 1) and then a small side extension. Would you recommend a pro (marshaltown?) trowel or still stick with budget?
nice chair
Great video! I'm curious as to where you got the trimming hammer I saw you use to remove waste after saw cutting a notch? Thank you
Well explained Rod what about your line blocks? great video keep them coming
I brought some ox line pins and me and my dad think they are quite good, it doesn't slip of or brake the line also brought an ox 4 inch bolster whitch is realy good
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!
Pencil , Stanley knife and personally would've stuck a brick hammer in there but if limited to just eight couldn't argue with your choice
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
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.
Nice one bricks laid wages paid! 👍👍
😁👍🏻
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.
Awesome video Rodian cool shout great Explanination all the best Tony
Thanks 👍 Glad you enjoyed it 🤙🧱
Hi Rodian I got halfway through then pulled away by the wife now I can finish watching it typical wife 😂
Hi Rodian it true stabila all day long, I have always filed the end of my pointing trowels slightly. Great video hope you got your digger sorted 👍
Interesting idea to file the end of the pointing trowel, might give that a go. Unfortunately the digger is still MIA 😭
Hi Rodian an old boy Brickey showed me, I’am a carpenter by trade, so it was much appreciated when the old boy stop as he walked past me when I was pointing my first house and shared a tip, can’t beat it priceless all the best Tony 👍 we doing a give away if your interested Bud
Another good club hammer is the ox one. I have one my self 👌🧱
I'll try one out 😁👍🏻
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
I've had a 4 foot level since it was a boat level,( long time)😷😷😷 still reads true!!
I always check my levels to make sure they still read true 🤙🧱
What about a tool bag?? :')
Nice vid, how about pencils and squares?
Agreed they are very much a part of a beginners tool kit. I wanted to limit it to 8 tools, if it was any more I would obviously have included tools like squares, pencils etc
👍
BLWP .. I’m with Tony from build with A&e . I always grind the sharp tip away so the it’s roughly the same as your thumb . I had a genuine WHS one years ago the old ones with WHS stamped into the blade , it was super blunt and rounded and perfect but as with all the best gear it was lost or stolen 😭😭👍🏼🧱
wood levels I enjoy better, thats me though. However the stabila levels are good
Watch that mushroomed strike end of that bolster mate, Ive had those small chunks of steel shear off and fly at me like a bullet before 🤕. Can I suggest grinding the mushroomed steel off and periodically grinding a chamfer on the end to keep you and others on site safe. 👍
You have missed one 🤨
The metal mug for tea or coffee ☕️ 😆
🤣🤣🤣
I'm a apprentice bricklayer what would you advise for a trowel I currently have a cheap screwfix trowel.
If you're going into bricklaying full time I would definitely recommend a Marshalltown. I've tried a fair few different ones and they are by far my favourite.
Do you have any other construction based qualifications or are you 100% bricklayer
I am only qualified in bricklaying but I do other bits when needed.
If you're going to be on price work, you'd be better off with a petrol one, "if it don't get laid you don't get paid"✌️
@@RodianBuilds Hi Rodian, l used a Philadelphia Marshalltown all through my collage years and for many years after............until l went to work in Toronto, Canada. 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.
im kid i wish to be builder im now stdying
Those levels could do with a bit of brick acid clean them up 😬
It's only lime mortar from the tutorial builds I do. Should have cleaned them up before making the video 🤦🏼♂️🤣
You should put some money into work clothes also. It’s madness that brickies don’t present themselves as professional tradesman by looking the part. One of the reasons the rates are crap.
Have you tried using this line that this old bricklayer used to use i'll leave a link for you. th-cam.com/video/VMJRbJCU5DQ/w-d-xo.html
I watched the video, i that guy for real or is it some sort of calm humor?
You left out the most important tool of all ! Without it. No apprentice can’t even start the day on the job site. That is reliable transportation to get his butt to the site on time.
Most are born with legs 😬
@@richardlovell016 you’re really pushing it now! Asking them to walk to work! 😩
real brickies don't fuck about with string lines and spirit levels and gay tape measures. we eyeball it. I don't even bother with a trowel anymore and I joint up with my thumbs. GET YA HANDS DIRTY ya big jessy!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love it
First after pressing play
😁👍
