Bricklaying - Herringbone Brick Panel Freehand

[@Deliquescentinsight]

This reminds me of my old man, he was a Bricky of the old school, did his apprenticeship in the late 1930's, he loved all this fancy stuff!

[@wilkinsoncarpentry6278]

One reason I love this channel is .... You ALWAYS show mistakes or talk about things that are difficult to do.... that makes you “normal” like everyone else in the building industry.... you don’t hide errors and make out you’re always right👍

[@Stucrompton1]

Just doing my best bud

[@danbackhouse6975]

Brilliant job stu 👌 glad you didn’t edit out the blue on blue mistake because things happen and you corrected it , brilliant 👍

[@ctmasonry4222]

I've never built a Herringbone panel using lines, always free hand by eye. That's the way I was taught, saves time. Your wall looks real nice. Great job. USA here.

[@hood_killer6978]

I want to be a bricklayer so much I love it. I’m doing N5 construction course at College and I’ve done joinery, slating,plastering, brickie and scaffolding but I like the bricklaying the best so I hope I get into it in 2019

[@chrispotts7655]

after being let down by local tradesman decided that this year Im going to build an extension , brilliant videos and going to give it a go !

[@01ozey01]

Stu. You're a legend mate. Hopefully I'll get to your level one day with my determantion I will get there

[@richardmennell5745]

Wish my brickwork was as good as yours - you never fail to make me like your bricklaying videos!

[@sweetcandyterror5444]

Im about to try my second attempt too, since apprenticing about 8 years ago lol. Its on my house inbetween two panels of basket weave i finally got around to doing today. Love your vids bud. Theres still passion in the trade

[@razoredge4485]

Brilliant job Stu well done! Your 1st bottom perp and your forth bottom perp are bang in with the rest of the other brick within the Herrinbone line nice one!

[@johnbarker3399]

That’s a work of art stu well done

[@craighunter7379]

great work mate , all the bricklayers i have ever met have been alcoholics & cant use a spirit level !! keep up the good work

[@leafy1262]

I'm doing this project in school tomorrow! I am feeling confident about it

[@theobright9817]

Great job ,I love your teaching skills and your honesty when you show these videos ...

[@wilkinsoncarpentry6278]

That’s incredible work , for some reason I’m sitting here trying to work out if I could survive on a mature age apprenticeship and start bricklaying haha so much more than just “laying bricks” ..... I’d try more decorative style if I ever learned the trade

[@freydis8098]

Wow, panel looks amazing.. the creator looks amazing.. Very nice work! 👍

[@Stucrompton1]

Thanks elena

[@MRsluggie123]

Looks good mate I’m going to be doing my first herringbone brickwork this weekend on my bbq hopefully will look good!

[@LockedInTheZoo]

That's an amazing piece of creative work, and not a bit of arrogance about you! Top guy!

[@leonblittle226]

Top job, a bit of craft like that outside these modern houses would be a real step up!

[@iamtheoneandonly9361]

You're one hell of a bricky pal. I've been a fan of your videos for a while now, keep at it please it's nice to see a skill such as yours in action.

[@Stucrompton1]

cheers mate, hope youre well

[@chrisstratton6293]

I love the blue/black brick against the red. I'm planning on making my own version of this soon, thanks so much for the inspiration. The only thing that I would change is making the herringbone section 1 course more, 9 in total. This way you would break the bond of the top herringbone section against the stretcher courses (the bottom part of the herringbone is done this way). I'm really just being nit picky, but in a positive way :) I think you do amazing work and its inspiring

[@andywoods6990]

Loving the herringbone stu nice to see they are still brickies being creative for a change top job👍🏿

[@Stucrompton1]

Cheers Andy pal

[@turnpikebear]

Stunning work and love all your videos. Wish I had you here in the states in Pennsylvania. Sure could use your expertise. Thank you for all your videos. Great work.

[@jayofman]

Very nice and yes I have learnt something, stick to what I'm good at and pay someone like Stu to do my brickwork.

[@trevorharsh56]

Fantastic job!, what an amazing piece of art stuff.

[@mloaiza770]

[@bugbomb8048]

[@nikokatic0152]

[@Stucrompton1]

Glad you are intrigued by it buddy. It’s a cool skill and the possibilities are endless 👍

[@nikokatic0152]

[@ianthomas739]

[@erickmontejanoofficial2459]

The jointing you did looks real good

[@martindennis6168]

Excellent craftsmanship 👍

[@raydebbiemcdonald3208]

Great work as always. Can you show the cleaning up and what is the acid you refer to for cleaning. I think I’m gonna need to do that on my garden walls

[@murtazabasharat7086]

Great work as always, Iv just got my start as a Bricklayer and it's on internal Brickwork in a old pub. Can u give advice on how to lay bricks on an uneven ground or when the bricks itself are uneven with lumps. Thankd

[@rhymeandreasoning]

THAT is REALLY NICE. Well done.

[@jamesthornber6991]

Fantastic bricklaying skills stu.well done and keep up the good work mate 😁👍🏻

[@Doncorleone44]

Bang on that stu! I wonder why 6 people disliked it? I suppose some people will never be happy keep it up m8

[@abscomm]

Nice one Stu. I'll never get enough practice to be as good as you but you inspire me to try!

[@trevorb6180]

I'm a brickie the last 19 years and never done herringbond thank God by the look of it great job tho mate top marks

[@MH666-q4m]

Again, I know nothing about bricklaying but that's ace. Would love to see a full wall of that.

[@beutilisious]

Brilliant job Stu , well done well proud job, i have watched your tutorial and attempting three front steps not has easy as it looks third attempt may improve lol all the best.

[@1889michaelcraig]

It happens buddy. The best of us make mistakes once in a while. But not that often. Looks good with that rake joint. I like it.

[@MMG_MoonManGuitar]

Razor sharp. Nothing less than perfection Stu.

[@user-cp3eq4xb8c]

Случайно увидел твои несколько видео, просмотрел все до конца, хотя я не понимаю о чем ты говоришь , но руки золотые ! Красавчик! 💪👍

[@kyle.e3740]

Your my inspiration I’m 15 and want to be a bricky when I’m older Thankyou

[@melotone3305]

Really enjoyed this demonstration of technique and willingness to show the mistake and correction. What is the base or platform you use to make the mockups on? Thx

[@jakevasey4373]

Looks mint stu mate keep up the hard work

[@TheTerminator423]

Thats outstanding stu! 👏🏻top bit of work

[@LarJgrip]

Nice looking panel Stu 👍. I’m retired now and finished my career as an instructor. We all know layout is critical and centering a herringbone panel is even more critical. And the way you know you are properly centered is the cuts on either side are the same size. Your panel appears to be centered properly in the video. And I’m curious why you and others don’t describe the methodology of centering the panel during the layout. In other words, if you start by setting the first small cut dead center your side cuts will differ. What method did you use for layout? Or are your side cuts different?

[@alexmcdermott637]

Fantastic work stu

[@alexbourge7156]

You’re a gooden you stu 😊 watch all you do you’re a inspiration.

[@peterdawson5115]

Very impressed Stu, looks quality.

[@cammiethebricklayerruncorn5701]

Looks good Stu specially free had Soz for getting Hangs name wrong yesterday happy Bricking m8

[@jimmylegendre2261]

Looks nice good job. is there a reason why the pattern is not centered so cuts would be same size on both sides?

[@paullee7508]

All that with engineering bricks ..bravo

[@jamesc4453]

[@stuarthiggins188]

Looks amazing stu youve got a great eye keep up the great work👍🏻👍🏻

[@Chrismartin88]

Spot on nice job stu

[@bricky339]

Nice one Stu, it can soon run away, but you made it look easy. ☺

[@whitefields5595]

Did you wait for it all to dry out before you used the brick acid for cleaning... or did you carefully sponge down when wet?

[@fowlergaminghd1169]

I’ve watched you ever since I started learning bricklaying myself and you have thought me skills my teacher doesn’t know about thank you so much and that lease keep posting❤️

[@harry.godwinson1]

what you got planned for your garden wall stu?

[@trevorhayes1079]

Loving this one Stu 👍🏻👍🏻 top job

[@MR-bq1os]

Would you do a story telling KC's story, his trade, and what he thinks about working with his son?

[@billstrouse2407]

Beautiful job, as usual. One question: How bad does it hurt when you have to tear it down? If it were me, I don’t think that I would have the heart to do it!

[@Stucrompton1]

It’s bad but what can you do.

[@loplap6516]

If I am wondering if you can help me with a DIY question, we have had our walls skimmed. However, we have decided to get the ceiling done now, how will we match the ceiling and the wall edging?
