Bricklaying Building Segmental Brick Arch

[@seniorgolfprogress83]

Brilliant job Stu one of the best you’ve ever done and when you first started on KZbin they said you weren’t a bricky you prove them all wrong and I’m proud of you son onwards and upwards❤️💪👌

[@thadgiannetti790]

Great video, love that you don't edit out mishaps, real tradies know that something goes wrong on every job, every day and it shows the true professional who can solve a problem and work around it and still produce first class job. 👍 👍 👍

[@mickybrennan3489]

Beautifully done, lovely strong full joints , nice and tidy and the untrained eye would never know change had taken place well done Stu lad.

[@paulross8821]

As a plumber I know little about brickwork, but I knows a good job when I see one. U clearly take a lot of pride in your work ...

[@tilerman]

Love finding old newspapers on rip outs. Recently worked on a central London bank and had to get rid of old lockers. Loads of the lockers locked so we jemmied them open to look for goodies! Found newspapers from 30 years ago and I remembered all the stories! When we refit we always hide newspapers in walls and behind boxings. Nice brickwork mate. Cheers.

[@basilguts1786]

Busyboy 42 yeah I do the same mate,always stash a newspaper somewhere.The last newspaper I found was advertising farah trousers for £5:99😁.

[@michaeldibb]

Love watching a true craftsman at work.

[@julianthornton9076]

Well done Stu, love to see KC keeping an eye on you! I have two of my boys work for me, its great to pass on the knowledge, we are in the lake district so not much brick work but more interesting when you pin & prop a stone wall & you get a run on the fill when you start to strip out the stone, that's not for the faint hearted either! Keep up the good work & glad to see you enjoy the craft & dispel a few myths that we are all a bit lacking in the trade.

[@jackw9920]

Top work as usual, love jobs like this! Nice to see it matching the original. So much nicer than block everything up and then render on top

[@harryrobinson177]

You made that job look easy Stu, i take my hat off to you sir.

[@MMG_MoonManGuitar]

This is one of the most challenging jobs you've done Stu. Well done!

[@Stucrompton1]

Indeed mate, not for the faint hearted but it turned out great 😁

[@futurecaredesign]

I am just now learning about brickwork because of some projects I have in mind. It just seems like such a permanent solution and well within my skillrange. Your video was very instructive!

[@Eldorado1253]

Great job Stu l think the pull cord breaking was a god send it saved you loads of cutting to get your 10 mm gap the original arch bricks had not been done just laid with a tapered joint your arch looks great because you extended the width of the arch which allowed the brick joint to open on the bottom hope you do a video on fitting the doors so we can see how you sort out that wooden internal lintel when you open up the brick work to the left

[@stephen5598]

Sign of a good trades man adapting to the situation when something goes wrong not just running off from the job. Top job

[@johnwardle9667]

I once hired a petrol cut off saw from HSS. Same thing happened with the pull cord. I needed it that day so took the cover off and found the ratchet pawls were just stuck with dust. A bit of WD40 got them springing again. Top job again Stu and love the channel!

[@Stucrompton1]

yeah that was the problem mate cheers

[@Martin_IPL5990]

I watch most of your videos but rarely comment. What a truly awesome piece of bricklaying Stu.

[@Stucrompton1]

[@mikeberry304]

Top job as always Stu , looks like they've always been there , saw a couple of Nori,s in there , you Shure have some pure skill and love your job , KC is a cheeky bugger nicking your Lidl purchase, make him work harder next time ha ha , great when machinery breaks, I remember when I had a power cut at work with a car on one of the ramps , took me 3 hours if someone it down with a 32 mm socket n a big ratchet ,to get it off , at least fixing the sthill Saw saved an expensive trip to Seddon's to get if fixed , well done buddy !!🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@Stucrompton1]

[@stephendavol5589]

[@isyt1]

I was worried right until the end that you’d finally screw up a job but it turned out perfectly! Don’t know how you worked that out in your head. Awesome

[@Stucrompton1]

I was a tough one mate

[@DarrenVelSatis]

[@Stucrompton1]

Fantastic job fair play 👌👌👌👌

[@letsgocamping88]

Beautiful work

[@eddieharding5961]

Still cutting only one side of the voissures ! When you put in the last brick you have to put the muck on the brick like a pair of folding wedges . ie 10mm going back to nothing on one side of the joint and on the other side nothing going to 10mm then it looks slick . When you fill the top bed joint put the muck in from the end not the face . Look on ebay for 6mm fugen kelle .Brave effort Stu not one of your best though . All the best

[@adrea100]

well Done Stu!! excellent work! I have to do a arch and I loved your technique

[@corbin-coopz0646]

You should keep more clips of things going wrong and you going mad in your vids more often stu 🤣, shows some the other side of construction 🤣.

[@Engineer9736]

corbin -coopz0 I fast forward through those clips. I just want to see how it should go without mistakes. Cannot hear what he says anyway, too much accent.

[@GringoXavier]

Well done mate. Great job. 👏🏽

[@sonnythatcher]

Looks like the catch on the pull cord mechanism snapped. It's a tiny plastic part that we always keep a spare of which only take 15mins to change yourself but can ruin your day if you don't have spare. Probably bit late now but have a look into it. 👍

[@dpow888]

Awesome job!!!👍👍👍 I would have taken this on, i always preferred the intricate thinking jobs than the easy walling in jobs

[@Stucrompton1]

me too pal

[@markdwyer100]

It's like the original and that's a skill in itself 👌🏼

Quality Stu as always great when you can think on your feet like that

[@Stucrompton1]

It was a head scratcher Brian 🤪

[@brianchester4218]

Was until KC came along and sorted the job out lol

[@mondodaftasabrush]

Top job Think it looks period with full brick matches the house Always good to know how to service a saw Most likely full of crud nice to see your using dust suppression better working conditions Might pay to knock out and clean your air filters Always pays to have a service kit in the van spare recoil assembly just in case When I was in tool hire I taught every delivery driver to repair recoils and strings and gave them a spare ts400 recoil assembly to exchange on site to prevent breakdowns and save costs and paperwork too much choice now in saws

[@jimbrown8399]

Nice Job Stu, you made it looks easy
