    Sean, I So Love when there is the lovely quietness of just hearing the trowel and watching you work. It is blissful! Sorry, you are doing all the work. lol.

    Good work Sean you're making sure the building will last for a long long time and with good workmanship. It's always a pleasure watching someone who takes pride in his work.

    Great work on the wall, Sean. I always enjoy watching you put your designs into action and then seeing the final product. Your craftsmanship is impressive!

    I'm on catch up on your video's but I have to say that the relief and happiness on your face, when you showed the completed wall, was a joy to see! Really enjoying your video's, they have a honesty and realism that is very engaging.

    I admire your attitude and determination as to keeping with the old walls following the original construction of the building. You are on top of the facts needed to keep to your plan and make necessary adjustments, explaining to us the why's as you work!

    Congratulations Sean, getting the wall fixed. Never any doubt that you could get it done. So much fun to see you, Billy & Ryan all working hard on these projects. I watch all at regular speed, I feel if take the time to film all this work I can take the time to actually watch.

    You know Sean, the repetitive work is what transforms the task into a work to behold and it's interesting to see how it all ends up. Watching you mend this portion of the wall made me think of the original builders of the cottage and I have to congratulate them.....I could never do it. I can understand why these cottages were so small!

    Sean, I have to tell you that your videos are very interesting because they're mostly work and a little bit of talk whereas a lot of other videos are mostly talk and ads and a little bit of work. Keep at it; you do great work.

    Sean, That was so well constructed. You've really done a good job of explaining it to all of us . I mean I had no idea what you ment when you started this project and now I can really appreciate what you were up against. That wall should last the rest of the life of the building.

    Doesnt matter what the thermometer says, if your body says you are too hot, you are too hot! I also struggle in the heat, and have learned, finally, to stop worrying about whether other people find it to be excessive. I just check in with how im doing. Work is looking great!

    Quite an achievement Sean, well done to you for persevering and getting the job done, well beyond 5pm no doubt. You'll be able to sleep better now knowing that hole isn't there any more! Now its just that hole in the roof to worry about. Get that covered over as quickly as possible, even temporarily. It will save you lots of extra work in the long run. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing your experiences. 🙂

    Impressive beam work. The original looked as though it might be rotten through but clearly solid below the surface. And clever wood bracing with new beams and the stone work. Very interesting going through these earlier vids. Watch out for those slates above flying meanwhile, it'll be a grand job once the roof's done.
    On the cameras for builders and a remote, you'd only get cement all over the remote and end up needing a remote for the remote and so on lol.

    Looks like you want to show some close ups. I'd recommend getting a gopro, attached to some band on your head. That way you can properly discuss whatever it is you are working on. Editing shouldnt be too hard, just make sure you use some loud clap so it makes a nice audio queue on your timeline.

    This right here shows a lifetime of experience SUPPORTING a damaged structure properly. Rebar IN cinderblocks IN support beams in and RE-supported. It is hard work but totally worth it! Sean this is a job well done you should be proud of your work. :D DIY without the proper safety is knowledge is frankly careless and dangerous, it is nice to see someone who knows the professional safety aspects of a job and doesn't just throw heavy beams into a crumbling slot hole and start building floors. It takes knowledge and professional experience to do the job right. 💪

    Sean, watching a masonry wall being restored is always interesting. I can feel your sense of closure when the hole was filled. I just recently filled a hole in my old house wall that had an inappropriately placed window. Finally, after 65+ years, the wall is back to its original condition.
