Lonely bricklayer | The skill of bricklaying

[@UKpolitoons]

People who have this passion and share are very generous and kind thank you

[@brikkijim]

Slow and steady. Good way to learn. Once you have finished your apprenticeship you'll be a fine bricklayer. One note though. When laying across steel always keep mortar to a minimum because it will always crack there due to freeze/thaw cycles and will eventually fall out. Dry is the best way but depending on the brick you may need a little in front or back but not a full bed.

I used to be a swordsman in a previous life

[@witzYT]

Have a great time on the cruise, catch some rays, some z's and refresh the palate so to speak, work can make the mind stagnant!!! A nice vaca is exactly what the doctor ordered!

[@GingerDust69]

I wish I could holiday forever

[@witzYT]

@@GingerDust69 I hear you buddy, I've had those times as well, but there enlies the dilemma, if life were easy you wouldn't appreciate the good times as it would be the "norm" and would grow boring, so in order to really get the most out of the good calm times you have go through the bad, the ugly and the redundant. Such is life.

[@mrbrick5428]

Do use ever work on kit houses ginge or is it always traditional

[@pigeonworldforum3869]

Fellow Bricklayer here, just found your Channel, noticed You hold your thumb around the handle , and not on the top .....do You find it gives You as much control over the Trowel ? Good Brickwork by the way .....

[@jimjam1934]

Nice job, enjoy your holiday!

[@craighahessy9602]

Lovely jubbly enjoy the holidays

[@GingerDust69]

I need another on now

[@jasonputtock4428]

how long are those joists. That designs we dont have in our country. I would assume they would be far cheaper than Solid timber about 6 inch thick all round and hopefully much stronger. I need to cover an expanse of 22 feet wide, roughly 7 meters.

Nice tidy job mate.enjoy ya cruise. Don't forget ya suntan lotion or you might come back as a red squirrel🍻☀️😎👍

[@goldentrowel1968]

I find it odd in the UK you lay a bed of mortar over the lintel.Here in Australia we lay them dry over lentils no bed only the perps. surely the lime in the mix must contribute to lintel failure Eg Rust great video

[@GingerDust69]

I usually smear the lintel so it sticks better. Would I have a job with ya if I move down under.

[@goldentrowel1968]

@@GingerDust69 Im retired these days but if you move down under most guys from the Uk had for the large commercial union jobs you get paid well and good working conditions
