Aye very good pal great building . Once again I enjoyed your video .
I been asked to build a wall for a guy but he wants it built with cement as well Iv never in my life used it in a wall , maybe I can talk him out of it . I don’t normally do jobs for ppl only walls on the farm I work on as we have loads here . There actually called galloway dykes , that’s the style an built slightly different an the stone is not quite as good . It was the Irish that built them between 300 / 400 years ago , there were massive squads of men building them . Some times I find old bottles of wine that they have built into the walls too . So they must of liked a drink when building them .

I use cement sometimes. Just put some halfway up and ended the coping stones 🤷‍♂️ I find mostly old clay pipes and beer bottles

As you obviously understand perfectly two most important things flat level seat to receive next stone and trim edges to minimize gaps lovely job

That's a great looking wall my friend! I see that you taped your fingers, I should have done that as well. It was a lot of blood coming from the fingertips in the beginning 😅👍

Thanks mate! Yeh I tape them in summer when it’s too hot for gloves 😃⚒

Your to quiet and the music is to loud.
Whose wife pick that crappy music?
It's not dry waller music.
Love your work ! Thank you.

I’m a dry Waller and I like the music so I’d say it’s dry Waller music 🤷🏻‍♂️ thanks for watching
