    Thanks for the positive comments lads, listen there will always be people picking at my work it just tells me a lot about those types of people, to watch a 10 min video purposely looking for faults your in a bad place in life, I've been there. I produce this content for free and I try to help people, I will never reply to people who pick at my work I just hid there comments forever on my channel so nobody can see their sadness. Thank you to all that appreciate the free content I produce. Stay safe, never react to people who try drag you down, they're already below you for a reason. A lot of other people copying my content which is a compliment, you can buy the same paint as an artist but you can never ever copy and artist imagination 👍

    Love your work Stu. I started as a Brickies Labourer when I left school, I know the challenges what with the weather etc. I went to Australia & worked for a Brickie for a year, (Gang of 3 Brickies ) non stop all day, even in the Heat. I ended up being a Chippie over here. Having seen good & bad Brickies, I can say you are a Goodun. All the best from Down Under.

    Good going on your own mate, I'm a bricky in Manchester, just a trick that me and my dad use is when you build off the lintel put some 4x1 along the bottom of it propped with some Batons or whatever you have and it won't give and you can go higher, keep it up mate

    Stu Compton Love watching all work, your a good Lad with a positive attitude and there's a lot to be said for that, as I used to say to my students "When you point a finger remember there's 3 pointing back" I just wish there were more like you, thanks for taking the time out to produce such great work!

    Nice brickwork stu, im looking at getting back into bricklaying as i never got the chance to make a career of it seen as once i qualified as a level 2 bricklayer from barnsley college i got hit with the recession so there was no work so i never got the chance to get going. You're videos are pushing me ever so harder to give it a good go this time, I'm just in the middle of getting my cscs card, i think i might need to labour and learn on site as i never got the chance to get site experience. I've subscribed to your channel and watch all your videos and keep learning bits that will help me on site, cheers stu and keep up the good work fella 👍
