You know I've been trying to get my helper to understand that you can lay in two directions now I think I have the education to teach him how to do it better thank you so much for helping me explain better remember we don't have too many Masons nowadays because too many guys wanted to hold on to all the tricks and not teach the youngsters out of fear of losing their job now we can't even get apprentices it's getting harder and harder so thank you keep up the good work and thank you for sharing the game old timer
Where you from!? That’s awesome news! This guy knows his stuff. This man is very large…his wrist has been able to handle the weight of that mud and blade, or he wouldn’t be teaching like this. Try to really take care of your joints. Put the stress on the material not your body.
Great video ,I'm running block outside my house, I look like a five-year-old playing in the mud. I've been in construction for many years but never caught on to that slap to make the concrete stick to the trowel. Thank you
Im sharing this to all ,y buddies who hate using trowels. I want to vomit when i see people digging in buckets and not on mortar boards. Utterly gross. And when i say "digging", yes im referring to with their hands😢
I'm sorry I guess I'm the only one. I appreciate the video. But technically you're just showing it you're not teaching it. Give some inside tips. That's me playing basketball, and want to teach you how to shoot a jumper, by shooting a jumper. There's certain finger placements, there are certain hand placement. how far back do you pull the ball? Is it next to your ear? in front of your forehead Etc. I'm sure there's a way when you slide across the block that you should maybe, tip the lower half of the trowel. or so much pressure as you go near the end of the block. I will have to go and just practice it and try to figure it out. And no! practice doesn't make you better at it! Practice doesn't make perfect! Perfect practice makes perfect. I can watch anybody just do it over and over and over. but they're still little intricate things that you can show us. show that.

I think you need to get the mortar to stay on the trowel guys
