I frankly say, the Jon Hiseman and Barbara Thompson were one of the nicest couple imaginable; although I never met them, respectively only saw them occasionally on stage, you can tell that they were wonderful people and surely must have gotten well along with each other.

Is the red sand a sharp sand in your lime putty mix. I wish to point a brick wall and would prefer a redder mix. If so could you tell me what the sand is and where i can get it from please.

This guy also makes a living doing it, this video series is related to his restoration work on Union Chapel in London. Your comment comes off as insecure edit: after doing 20 mins of research online I've found evidence of pitsaw technology being used by the romans. stands to reason, it's obviously a very primitive method. who's the fake expert now?

@@ParsleyPunch pit saws are not primitive as you claim the were first used by cabinet makers and furniture makers in the late 17th century for cutting boards . adzes and draw knives were used previously .the timbers being used were split into shape also on medevil ships just the sapwood was removed as it encouraged pests . most left in the round .the technology of the sawpit is not roman what so ever . have a great day expert .

Hello wanted to ask, in your opinion is possible to use cement (for better setting) with hydrated lime and sand (0,5:1:5 ratio) for rendering a brick wall layed with lime mortar, as it is quite difficult to find hydraulic lime in our region? Or even small amounts of cement will trap moisture, make wall unbreathable and ruin the bricks? Kind regards
@stihl38266 күн бұрын
Definitely no cement

Stick a decent sized stone in your mixer and that acts to squeeze and work your mix. You’ll go through the odd mixer barrel but you’ll save a whole lot of work!

I remember when lime wasn't available in fine agregate in bags like today.Actualy it was but it was very expensive.Then people were buying lime in form of stones and they dig hole in ground and put all that stones in it and then pour water on it and it was nasty.Later you have something like white soapy lime and you simply grab out of hole how much you need and mix with sand and you have excellent mortar which last forever.

Very interesting and informative video. I use Lime for pointing and rendering up here around the Lake District on Substrates like Slate, walling Stone etc and now having a bit of experience with it, the skill is in the prep and time, it’s a patient skill and is not a one size fits all approach. Gable ends, Church Towers and floors are my usual jobs. Your videos are some of the best I’ve seen on this subject. Thanks.
