Nice job Izzy. Full joints on the block-work says a lot about you 👍 Shame Drew has got stir crazy in these last weeks. Drew I'm sure you watch these vids. I know you're leaving for something you wanna do badly but don't burn your bridges on the journey to the other side mate. You never know what the future brings. You've had a great mentor up till now. Not many young people get personal training like that. Good luck in the Marines 👍👍

As we get older its the lack of (MSM) organic sulfur, vitamin C and hydrolyzed collagen that causes the problems. Those minerals repair any damage...like cement...but we run out so the mix gets too soft.

Nice one. Getting inspiration and the hands-on know-how for an ambitious self-build on a tight narrow site between two semis where I reckon one facade will need to be built overhand (how the hell will I get it pointed sweet?!!) Subscribed and looking forward for more content.

[@IzzytheBricky]

Depends on if you can see the brickwork from the other side. If it can be seen your gonna have to point it mate. Best to do 3/4 course and then stand on something like a hope to reach over and down the point it up💪

[@richardhumber318]

Always great to see your work. Hang tough

[@joshuamatheron1]

That method only works if it’s a 45 degre pitch. Although I guess it’s close enough for what you need. Very nice work

Hi mate thank you! It's an Imex level! Brilliant bit of kit!

[@mastersamurai7683]

When you hold the brick 20mm away to mark it...does the pitch of the slope matter? I'd guess yes?

Yes you are right there mate, however depending on the angle, reflects how much. In this case it worked out perfectly and can work OKish to about 35-55°

No restraint straps? Got to be honest, that corbel with all stretchers looks pony but I'm a traditionalist.

Lovely brickwork again. Will say corbel would look better if you put headers on the end ( less than ¼ bonded) also how did the roofer get over the last course of your corbel as I bet its more than 50mm above the rafter end so above facia board? Other than that awesome 👍

There must be a LARGE air space gap in-between the face of the insulation and the OUTER wall inside the cavity ; this includes an air space gap in between the face of the insulation and the cavity-wall-tie drip points(which are in the centre of the cavity).

Hiya mate, I'd have to disagree with you. Next next door had bonded in corbels and I thought they looked horrific. I guess it comes to personal preference.

[@soldtobediers]

Know you don't give 2 sh@'s about an old timey Texas Bricky of the mid 70's Izzy. But here goes... Fresh out of the U.S. Paratroopers; my desires were to work the summers learning to become a Texas brick a layer & a stone a mason during the summer months & earn a degree towards becoming a high paid Psychiatrist during the winter seasons. First day on a residential job as a helper I learned to make the formula of the mortar. That night it had rained so the formula was offset to the point of almost running off the mud boards of the foreman & his bricky. He then whispered to me - ''Hey Rock: think you could move that 55 gal. water barrel a little farther from the mixer for that next batch of the day?'' @ which I replied ''No sweat boss.'' And upon my return for the 2nd wheel barrow load: I took the time to steering wheel that now nearly full 400 lb. drum of water 2 rounds away from the mixer. Whereupon both he, the other mason, & both their helpers stood fast in awe as I shouted out to the foreman... ''How's That Boss?'' I'll never forget to this day the first time I saw his trowel bury 2''' deep into his scaffold floor board: as he then leaped from it & proclaimed for all to hear... ''Dammitt All Son! Your gonna make a bricklayer. You got a strong back & a weak mind!'' From that point on, he saw to it to get me up on his walk board to spread his mud before him & to hand him his brick: each time we hit the long money walls from the front garage, to the kitchen, to the back yard of the homes. I'll shut up now with the gestalt of my thesis of it all... ''There's no construction material touched & adjusted more, on any building than that of the lowly brick or stone. None!'' ~Just another one of those many one's of ''We The People'' Who's awaiting His Just⚖Return🪃- as The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. ~Psalm 118:22
