I've watched a few bricklaying vids and got to say you have some great skills. You've obviously had an excellent teacher. No messing about laying bricks with some considerable skill 👩🏫👍👍
Here’s a tip from an old bricky, when cutting your halves with your trowel hold the brick underneath with your hand and pull it towards the trowel as you strike it, or one day you might lose your thumb and just one more tip less tapping more money keep it going Linerforce.
Very inspirational! Makes me very proud to see you doing this. I’ve been bringing my three daughters to work off and on for a while, they will start doing summers with me soon. Keep it up, you’re awesome!
Soooo encouraging to see this (I'm only 2mins in!), You need to get this under the noses of the 'Women in Construction' board. High time we had more like this. SUBSCRIBED!
Great Video 😊. I'm currently learning Bricklaying in College. I'm also learning Carpentry/Joinery, Plastering & Painting and Decorating. Learning the trades is actually really fun and I agree Women should definitely get into learning the trades more. 😊
As a bricklaying apprentice who’s only been doing it a couple months, I’m confused as to why you lay some bricks with the frog up and some frog down? Is there a reason for it
Well done Darcy what an inspiration to women coming into the trade you just show female can do the job and I'd welcome females into it aslo bricklaying needs a change and this is it if you ever need a job I surrey hit me up 👍
I was on the tools in the 80’s and never saw raised spot boards. I’ve just started back in my late 50’s after retirement. I made some board stands, they are a revelation as are nylon spot boards. Not sure my old back could cope without them.
I'm sure I heard you say you don't know much about bricklaying, you've obviously picked up more than you actually realise! Good luck with the new channel Darcy, looking forward to the next vid.😄
Thanks so much, i do try hard to learn as much as i can. I just don’t want to come on here and people expect me to be amazing, because i’m still just learning and on my own little journey 😁 thanks for the support, it means allot.
I love the insulation in the middle. In south africa we don't add it and damn our homes are cold in winter. I will be adopting this. Hopefully our law allows
Because of all these google ads about female Brickie I came to look for a female Brickie to ask there opinion. Regarding the pay gap, etc. what are your views on the correlation between male and female sportspeople to male and female work people? Do you think the obvious performance differences mean diffrent pay or do you deny there are differences? Just wondering about proper female Brickies perspective
i think the thing is about this type or work is by 4 pm your on your way home smacking the roof of your van with the whole day ahead of you and feeling alive!
half bats turn the cut into the perp joint and then no worries about the half being short or too long sticking into the cavity ....where you doing your time at ?
It always makes me wonder watching these videos from the UK how you guys build your walls with no air cap between the brick and insulation. No wind resisting layer on the outside of the insulation nor water vapor barrier on the inside between blockwork and insulation. How the Hell aren't your inside air full of contaminants?! Great job on the brick laying though.
@@FUT-Franklin No bud we dont render all buildings only if they built in Blockwork on outside, we would either render or clad. timber framed building we would use a Tyvek membrane . but no need when we build with face brick and block work. . we use Thermal Insulation Cavity Batts to insulate :)
Female Bricky doin' a job many a male bricky should envy - you are a living example of the fact that a woman has no problem doing "a man's job" better than any man Impressed? No not really, you just confirm what I've told my daughters since they were old enough to listen
Don’t do what the rest do tell it like it is no sick pay no holiday money rained on frosted off this time off the year it’s a nightmare a real struggle in winter then when spring comes every one forgets the shite and blows about how much they are earning
How heavy are the bricks there? In Australia our bricks are 2.3kg and we carry 12 at a time with brick grabbers. And carrying 2 blocks at a time that are 13.3Kg or 20kg. Haven't seen any female brickies in Australia, definitely appears a lot easier physically in Europe
we had a female brickie years ago she even smoked a pipe she was like one of the lads and could drink as much as us lads on fri afterwork when we paid them in the boozer and could pick up a conc block with one hand and lay it not every time though not even we could do that she was great her name was leslie even had a gender neutral name les we called her and she was but great mates we were even her partner and friends used to join us on the fri night piss ups wether they were all gay i dont remember and never bothered us it was all sport talk holidays cars and past jobs we had a great laugh

My old boss back on the day chopped his thumb right down the middle. Top tip. 👍

@@rattlekings Thank you 😊
what type of college do you learn all those trades?
@@cathalkennedy8225 I have the same question
You are a proper grafter! I can tell that! Credit to the trade👍
Good vid. You do good work and can hang in with anybody. Great job
Turn board handles to back save the gear slipping through as mucks drawn to front of board when collecting. Nice video 🤟🤟
Brilliant keep going girl,much respect
Nice to see you enjoying your work, i have been a bricky for over 40 years now and been trying to persuede one of my daughters to take it up !!
why what has she done to deserve that?
Thank you for this channel, you are gonna be as popular as Amy!

Top & tailed the perps 👍..quality work 👏…used to be a bricky myself 25yrs ago…never seen the spot boards up at waist height before.
I was on the tools in the 80’s and never saw raised spot boards. I’ve just started back in my late 50’s after retirement. I made some board stands, they are a revelation as are nylon spot boards. Not sure my old back could cope without them.
Go girl. Like the little pink touches on the tools 👍🏻
You’re an inspiration, what’s the pay like and is it hard to find work?
thank you I am a union labor and about to start a new job hod carrier!!!!
Nice video gal!
If I could give you a tip it would be to lay the full brick first before putting half brick in the corner.
Either way works though :)
Nice going Darcie look forward to the next one 🤩
WELL DONE DARCY, KEEP AT IT, IT ONLY GETS EASIER AS TIME GO ON. CHEERS
Good luck with the channel 👍
Thankyou 😁
Such an inspiration Darcie keep up the good work..
Nice work. Always perp your next brick with the muck that you scraped from the last brick👍👍

Lovely brick & block work. How long have you been doing it? (Qualified).
Great Video keep it up. That is the truth the Grind don’t stop🧱🧱💪
Thanks for the upload. Nice work where'd you get the blue plastic dori block from?
Nice pink trowel innit.. Is that a tool belt pouch under your jumper?
Try a sled jointer for your bed joints for your initial pass makes for more level joints.
Peter Jordanson would be very proud
Fair play to you,get your time in you can work any were 👍
Use dummy frames or put a straight edge up reveals it will save you plumbing all the time
Go for it girl I have subscribed..🙂
Does it change the banter with a girl on site don't think I would say half the stuff I do with a girl about

A tip is keep an eye on the halves on the reveals. Some are way to big. Cavity closures won't fit
hello mis in which country is this?
Good luck with your channel. Are you going to college or is all your learning onsite?
What made you get into bricklaying? Great video by the way
Darcy thumbs up!
half bats turn the cut into the perp joint and then no worries about the half being short or too long sticking into the cavity ....where you doing your time at ?
She doing it the correct way
Hello 👋 from Davenport Iowa USA 🇺🇸!New subscriber
Very stylish furrow btw
Nice one Darcie great content 👍🏼
Yay, thanks BrickJackets 😁
Brilliant well done I'll follow u
Here in the states all our framing is shit wood and paper and we put brick ties on the 2*4s. You guys are way better than us.
Well this channel is cool! Thank you for the content 🤟🏼
Your good very good I enjoyed your video 🙂 great stuff 😘

Make them muck board stands with 4×1 for the legs next time far longer lasting

good them insulation knives are
Get the scaffs to give u 2 inside boards.. Then u won't b squeezing through standards
Great work.
Don’t do what the rest do tell it like it is no sick pay no holiday money rained on frosted off this time off the year it’s a nightmare a real struggle in winter then when spring comes every one forgets the shite and blows about how much they are earning
😂😂😂😂pretty much , it hasn’t been a bad winter this one though in all fairness
Good luck for the future. Plenty of potential to make a go of TH-cam.
Good to see you Darcy, save yourself some energy by buttering the bricks away from your body lower down.
Here is better tip I’m not a bricklayer “I’m an artist in burnt clay” strive to achieve that goal 👍
You’re gorgeous, and hardworking and capable
Where are you based?
Darcie, what happened to your nose? 😊
Be wanting same money next 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice One
Good luck with your channel
I wish you all the best from Hungary. 👋
Don't hit level with trowel blade.
without doubt you have a talent for brick laying but I couldn't work a line with you, try to avoid touching the line, others are using it too

Are you from UK? You have the accent :-D
Don't you guys using rebar into the walls
No
You have twitter.?
Darcy give Amy a run....lol
Should be plastic caps on the end of them scaffold poles could catch your face on 1 of them .. .. just be mindful .. great video thou 👍🏻
Keep going your doing great watch out for the bricklaying police on here who will moan at everything you do
You mean Fabion? 😆
Follow Charlie collision
Woooo
Your parents must be very proud of you
Being a bricklayer is harder than people think
