Flemish Bond Brick Wall

[@plymuf08]

Love flemish bond, looks so much better the standard strecher bond. Good work

[@Stucrompton1]

it does pal, takes a bit more time but its worth it

[@chascarpenter5006]

Wow Stu, lovely work lad, should do a re visit when all set up & running to see the finished piece with top on.

[@SikkGoalz]

So satisfying to watch a master at his craft.

[@karimabdullah2925]

Amazing craftsmanship Stu, u da best!

[@joshuamatheron1]

Best looking bond in my opinion. Lovely work as always

[@lancestreet5960]

How is college going? I am looking to pay for a course at the age of 20 not far off 21 and would like some info, how did you find quickly getting into the site work? Cheers mate

[@shifty277]

Farrrrkin ell the fella is brickwork mad, he's ripped his kitchen units out to build a show piece for the channel!!! The Mrs comes home.... "Stu, wheres me kitchen units....?, appliances....? where's me photo frames....?" - "Give us 2 or 3 hours love i'll finish off this wee flemish bond beauty for the channel then i'll get it all plumbed, connected and wired all back in" Wife grabs kitchen knife still left on the side.....eeeeeeekk....ha ha ha Cracking job stu, flemish bond is a rare site these days and looks a miwwion dollars when done to this kind of standard and lovely raked out coloured mortar. Thumbs up, I know how much effort this takes to end up at this 10 minute video.

[@barringtonsmythe3464]

Love a bit of flemish bond. Beautiful example. Crisp ❤️

[@tidybrickslandscaping]

That pattern on the face looks great in Flemish makes it look posh 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@ryankristensen8772]

Lovely bricks these

[@MrStella1976]

Lovely mate can’t beat a bit of Flemish 👌

[@Stucrompton1]

Smart bond mate cheers

[@ryankristensen8772]

This is ace. Love a different bond. I'm on site atm and we're slinging them up with stretcher bond. Would love to do an old English or Flemish bond on them.

[@karloflaherty]

lovely brick and the muck looks a great mix

[@Stucrompton1]

Sand wasn’t the beat Karl but made it through.

[@karloflaherty]

Great job mate

[@MMG_MoonManGuitar]

Precision. Love it mate!

[@Stucrompton1]

Hope your Sunday is good A

[@mikekerr3242]

Fantastic workmanship there Stu. How about trying your hand at building a "domed " piza oven, I have seen some on other channels. They tend to be constructed "roughly" as they cover the bricks with insulation. Yours would be a "masterpiece" with precision cuts on your brick saw. And as a bonus you could use it for keeping your greenhalgh's pies warm:).

[@loupiscanis9449]

Thank you , Stu .

[@doddsy65]

Very nice Stu , hell of a reception desk , should've left an opening in back , somewhere to put the kettle and bits .

[@mikeearls126]

Awesome - if you can, post up a picture when it's got a top and in full use.

[@Stucrompton1]

Will do mike

[@Dts1953]

[@waynebarker1426]

@@Stucrompton1 be nice to see some new homes built in this bond but they just want them up now a days 😏

[@rinyvanabel3467]

Hey, I'm from Germany and I'm also a bricklayer. Your work is really great. Not as good as we are in Germany, but still very nice ... Fun XD

[@george4vIogging]

What is better in Germany?

[@davidcornell9167]

Another fine job Stu. But I noticed you could use a new left glove. We could raise a few bucks across the pond here and send them your way if needed!!! LOLOLOLOLO Best bricky for sure. Thanks for the new videos during the lockdown. Something to look forward to!

[@Stucrompton1]

Lol please do I looked like fagan

[@markhep]

I like the look of flemish bond haven't done it for a few years. Good choice taking that split out looks stunning mate 👍👍👍

[@Stucrompton1]

Yeah made loads of mistakes mark but I made it through.

[@markhep]

@@Stucrompton1 well you don't no what it looks like till you tried it. Looked very smart the end result 👍👍👍

[@ahmadabuomar317]

I like your work, you are doing beautifully and elaborately. I hope you can build a house for me, but I am from Jordan

[@marcuscicero9587]

as always right on the money work. any consideration given to the brick weight cracking the quarry tiles?

[@dbuts5136]

Very nice ! Your videos gave me the confidence to build a dwarf wall greenhouse last year,I learned a lot and have another project planed.any chance you could do a pizza oven ?!! Thanks Stu!!!

[@afz6936]

Eres el mejor q makina

[@oscarflores6828]

Awesome work don’t want to nitpick I could be wrong but there is something about the top right stone that doesn’t quite look right then again it could just be me or the angle of the camera I’m sure you checked. All your work is always incredible 👍

[@Stucrompton1]

Yes Oscar a couple of mistakes here and there

[@Doncorleone44]

Mint job stu! 18 dislikes I suppose there’s no pleasing some people

[@Stucrompton1]

Well this is it buddy, can’t please everyone that’s life

[@toreangunning3208]

Hard 💥💥💥💥💥💯

[@Mark...]

Looks great 👍 what’s the plans for the top? A nice chunky wood top would look good or even a cast concrete top would finish it off nicely.

[@Stucrompton1]

Not sure what the customer is going to go with mark yet but I will get a pic when it’s done.

[@jurisembergs9245]

Great idea, logo 🙄 In Latvian word taste means - taste, passion, intuition.

[@HeléneochErikHjerdin]

Just did 33 stones in 4 hours for my greenhouse wall, 700 to go 😢. You’d do the whole wall in a day or two, damnit.

[@blackbirdcycles]

G'day Stu the cavity between the bricks will be a good place to hide all your money.

[@Stucrompton1]

Yeah lol

[@pappypinel7484]

Great work Stu , was this a office building.

[@paksallion]

This is so slick! Can you show us how to make a basic barbecue?

[@bennicholson191]

There's one on his channel pal

[@Stucrompton1]

Beers Ben I was just going to say

[@lloydmartin7153]

Great work again Stu! Attention to detail is spot on 👍 what is the best cement dye to buy?

[@Stucrompton1]

The liquid concentrate is best I found

[@lancestreet5960]

Hopefully you see this and can potentially answer ... I am around 7 weeks from turning 21, I haven’t enjoyed much of my jobs I’ve done up to now, I am thinking of paying for a brick laying construction course at college, is it worth the risk and how easy is it to get a job afterwards/become self employed?

[@terry.chootiyaa]

*Stu, mate, so on average how much cement is needed for say, 50 bricks for example ...is there a ration of cement :to: bricks in the industry ? 🤔*

[@jonathandixon8456]

1kg of mortar per brick

[@jonathandixon8456]

Roughly about 1/2 a bag of cement at a 5:1 ratio for 50 bricks

[@lewisrandle8895]

Alright stu looks great what dye do you use mate top job 👍🤘

[@Stucrompton1]

the liquid concentrate lewis

[@Euromiles]

Looks awesome stu, whats your take on scoring the tiles before laying the first course? I have been taught to run a a few careful cuts with the diamond for better adhesion.

[@Stucrompton1]

Sounds plausible but wouldn’t it break through the seal at the face of the tile.

[@sen5908]

Stu, building a top lite internal wall ( like thermolite ) would 5:1 mix be ok

[@Stucrompton1]

yeah should be

[@sen5908]

Jesus they certainly suck the water out of your mix, need jointing straight away!

[@wp7867]

Good quality workmanship as always again Stu you never fail to do a great job! What’s the name of these brick and where are they from mate? They look like LBC commons?

[@Stucrompton1]

im not sure of the brick bud i can ry find out for you

[@RH-hb7zs]

When I go back to work. I’m gonna lay bricks exactly how you lay them. Some colleagues confuse when I’m on the line with them

[@DreTheGiant1]

That's no good tho? Lool... less it's your crew, can't just lay em however ya want??

[@stevieg7403]

How many bricks do you manage to lay per 25kg or do you mix larger amounts?

[@peterdawson5115]

That looks sharp Stu, nice pattern on the bricks, and Flemish always looks good, but you don't see it much these days, shame really.

[@Stucrompton1]

Yeah all because of speed and less skilled workers, because it can take a bit more thought with bond. Numb bond prevails these Days

[@orthoepy1]

How do you calculate and maintain the dimensions and length of a Brick Wall? How are the dimensions and length of a Brick Wall arrived at so that it will work out to a perfect number of whole bricks without having to saw or to shorten a brick or having to plug a two inch hole at the end of the brick wall? As you are making the first run of the Brick Wall; placing brick, mortar, brick, mortar, brick, mortar; how do you keep the length of the brick run in compliance with the theoretical length and dimensions of the brick wall? A slight increase or decrease in the width of the mortar joints will increase or decrease the overall length of the brick wall causing you to saw or to shorten a whole brick or having to plug a two inch hole at the end of the brick wall.

[@astroanth7107]

In mixer have you ever put a chain in to mix it better

[@Stucrompton1]

i havent jaiden

[@nickykirkham9130]

What brick are you using there stu. Also how are you dealing with the current lockdown.

[@Stucrompton1]

Not sure of the brick the customer got all materials and left me too it. Keeping myself away from people 👍

[@RobBoFr]

Hi stu. Is that for a customer? Looks great
