It rained the last couple of days and it did not leak a drop. The entire job cost me $5.35 for a 60 lb bag of cement. I just added some water. All thanks to you and your videos.

I have really enjoyed watching your videos. It's really helped me a lot. Can't believe how much I've learned. Gave me the confidence I've needed to work on an old fieldstone fireplace and chimney at our cottage. Can't say enough how much I've enjoyed watching, learning, and applying what I've seen. Of course while you can apply what you've seen, can never really say you know it till you teach what you've applied, or something like that. Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks. I just split a granite step the other day to make a lintel for the rebuild of the fireplace inside using the feather and wedge technique and with a little patience it worked great. Thanks again!

I've been fascinated with masonry since I visited Notre Dame in Paris. Looking up a corner at ground level I was amazed how perfectly straight that corner was until it ended. This was done over a hundred years and completed in 1345. Almost 700 years ago. The stones still have chisel marks but they are cut perfectly. Amazing!

I noticed that on Wayne's air chisel, he had a toothed chisel for those angle cuts - could you just use an angle grinder and make little notches in a cold chisel? Maybe the heat treat would get messed up. It seems like the decrease in surface area - and resultant increase in pressure - would make light taps almost grind away, rather than chipping off pieces. If the whole place falls down and my grandchildren need to rebuild it - I'll try to remember all this youtube stuff from Honest Mike's Masonry! You are doing a great service to mankind by sharing all this knowledge and experience. Thank you for another great video!

Mike: PLEASE: Im looking for advice from stonemasons, i may have (partly) figured out how they made the scallop marks on the unfinished obelisk at Aswan!! If you have a dolerite ball the size of a basketball, roped so that the vase is exposed and even lengths of rope come off each direction horizontally...and a crew of workers on each side rapidly pull and release the rope you create a hammer drill of sorts. NOW to prevent the granite being shattered , a layer of wet sand was added to dissipate the force ( they used wet sand for other techniques such as coring drillholes) that has a powerful abrasive action. Its also slightly irregular and would result in marks JUST LIKE those on the unfinished obelisk!!! I want to setup a recreation experiment!!!

Hi Mike. I have been watching your videos. They are very educational! Thank you for posting them! I have a question about a farm house that was built around the 1900s. It was built on a Michigan basement. It is in Northern Michigan, where we get snow and cold in the winter. The Michigan basement foundation is built from granite fieldstones. The bottom stones are large. The house was added onto at some point. The addition was built over a crawlspace. It was also built on field stones. One of the rooms never had a floor in it (just dirt). Also, There is easy access to getting under the crawlspace in that room. That room also has a door leading outside. What steps would someone take… after digging out the dirt, to build the new basement walls out of fieldstone? Do the large bottom stones sit right on the dirt? Is there any kind of vapor barrier between the stones and the dirt behind the wall? Would the mortar mix be the same as what you use in Pennsylvania? Any tips would be appreciated. Thank you.
