Thanks for watching! - Zábava
I like how you keyed the top cap corners, so that they will not come loose.
Loved the keyed corner bricks too, are they a set of specials or you cut them on site?
Was thinking the same, nice detail.
I was just going to comment the same thing
Im a bricky myself, a good solid wall build here.the finishing on the pillars is fantastic, most people would put a flag on it.i look at old buildings and admire the quality of the work.its a trade that im proud to be in.
Nice one Tom, good trade to have
@@Stucrompton1 from way
Building homes for people-you have the best right to be proud of .
Is it good money?
@@JMARSH_05 very good money.
Never thought watching a wall being built could be so therapeutic 😌 top quality workmanship 👌
Yeah, was thinking the same.
I was thinking "I've just wasted 3 minutes of my life"
Winston Churchill built brick garden walls during WW2 as a hobby.
our customers will pull up chairs and sit there all day and watch us lay the bricks, then go get us lemonade, buy us lunch, one customer bought us 200 lemon pepper and mild hot wings 3 fridays in a row during the duration we were on their house.
Why do professionals make it look so easy?? Respect to you my man!!
Easy with practice nacho
@@Stucrompton1 your videos are so good and helpful to me and pretty sure to many more and i want learn brick laying so i have question : how did yu change the color of cement and is that effect the cement strength and quality , can i use it in real big home walls with no risks, thanks for your time
FAROUK CNEPD FORMATION Cement colouring pigment liquid or powdered form ~ might be a bit weaker on actual strength ~ but add 20% more cement to mix ~ more than compensate.
Habit, muscle memory, failure, practice, practice and practice
@@bengreen1262 thank yu so much 👍
Never thought watching a brick wall being built would be so captivating. It's a work of art how you built that wall! RESPECT!
Bricklayer for 20 years. My cousin used to say people will ask who built it, before their likely to ask how quickly did they build it. Take you're time do it right the speed will come with time. Nice tasty work by the way.
This is the type of teacher people need. Very clear, very simplistic, no beating around the bush. To the point.
Obviously a man who takes immense pride in his work very impressed
This isn't brickwork it's a precision meticulous artist at work
Never seen the corners on a pier done like that before, I like it
Thanks Richard, I came up with the corner design in my academy
@@Stucrompton1 did you cut them corners with 4" grinder ? Or are they off the shelf? Good smart brickwork bud👍 . I do like a bit of brickwork but as from Cornwall there is a lot of stone work
I find technique very perfect. Wish you much health and happiness
It popped in my recommendation list , I don't know why. I've never built a wall and I think I'll never will, but I loved watching it. Nice editing, nice music, very informative.
I subscribed to your channel, keep the good work 👍
A truly remarkable skill that is very much underestimated, until you have to do it yourself and realise it's not as easy as it looks! Great video, great wall!
Absolute craftsmanship - I believe there is a huge difference between laying bricks and crafting an art. Well in Stu & Kc. Was looking forward to the finished product and wasn’t disappointed. 🤙
As a joiner by trade of 22 years, that is very neat work, you should be proud of what you have built! Not many good brickies around nowadays! 😊
Whats a chippy no about brickie's nowt
From a retired BRICKIE I throughly enjoyed your work.
Every Mason that I ever met is a tough son of a bitch. Just starting out laying at my job it's hard
It was awesome to see you bring the tops of those pillars to a finish.
Fantastic bricky not only a bricklayer. He is an artist at his craft.. Great job
What are the first bricks being laid on? Bare ground or is there a footing beneath? Can't see in this video.
@@patkaczmarek7362 What do you think? Cowboys question
A master tradesman at work. Absolutely first class. A pleasure to watch. Top marks Stu.
I'm 55 years years old now, and have been a brickie nearly 40 years. Still like watching your vids though.
Great work Sir. ❤
Did his dad kay c teach him or did he learn else where. Great vids
Tom Elliott I am looking at doing a bricklaying course at collage to become a brickie is there anything bad about it like can I work in the rain or winter
Respect
If I was having a house built I now know who I would want to build it, amazing brick work and highly skilled workers
My goodness that was amazing!
That’s a well built strong wall. Very therapeutic to watch too, I had to watch the speeded up sections at 1/4 speed😳
Superbly finished. Great vid, you are a true craftsman👍
I used to help my grandmother make Christmas cookies, well watch, mostly, as she made them. She took such care, such pride in her work, it was mesmerizing. In the same way, when you lay brick, the the way you do it, the skill you use, well, it’s mesmerizing. And it reminds me, a little, of those long ago December days at my grandmother’s house. Thanks.
Great Comment
Brilliant, Im in my 60 s and just moved into a bungalow. I have been digging up loads of bricks and after watching this Im going to attempt to build a low wall with them. Thank you
Corner bricks that tie in with the second ones on the pier tops are brilliant
Looks amazing. Love the custom cuts on those corner pieces of the cap.
Great to see these true artists lovingly work at this.
Wow beautiful brickwork, they must have been over the moon with this job. The piers are really nice and the capping details is fantastic. Nice to see we still have good lads out there taking pride in their work👍
Incredible last few videos on this garden wall. The cuts on the pillars were really good and so neat! Enjoy your trip to Dubai Stu and KC!
Top coarse on pillars with the corner brick detail I haven’t seen before and look really smart , well done
Absolutely, I never seen them corner pieces before. There usually the first piece to come loose, so a good invention.
Brick by brick you're growing your audience! Seen you and the channel grow from humble beginnings... keep up the great vibes bud!
Fantastic! Really enjoy watching your build vids. The wall looks really good.
The works of a diligent and meticulous man. Perfect artwork on those bricks 👏
Thankyou love
I like the 4 cuts on the top of the pillars! Theyre usually the first to rot and fall off/ get knocked off but the way youve cut them to tie them in to the sides was a sick idea man! Nice work!
Agree with Luke, I've never seen it done like that before 👍
Revisiting this vid stu as its popped up in my recommended vids. I say it every time but you are a bloody master. I hope you are proud of yourself. I think you're awesome sir stu
What a pleasure it is to watch a great craftsperson do a magnificent job.
Tremendously well built that pillar finish is pure class.
Well Done Stu it's a great feeling when you get the video that does these numbers, I had my first 1million view video last year, big up us tradesmen
I'm completely in awe of your skill!!
Just beautiful work... pleasure to watch a master mason making it look so effortless
Stunning. That is ART! no doubts whatever..
That is a thing of beauty especially ware you corbelled out for the copping brick and the small corner brick in the pier is amazing
I wanted to see how he cut those corner pieces.
That’s a great job from a top quality tradesman.
Love the detail in the pillars.
This is pure art . Amazing workmanship
Made to last...I hope that in 200 years some will see it and say "wow the person who build this was a master of his craft"
For sure,love your work mate keep it going and sharing it with us👌
Great finished product that I bet the client was really happy with! Have you ever done a strong retaining wall that was not only functional but aesthetically pleasing too? Al I see online are functional and ugly things. Keep up the great work Stu & KC
I've built countless decorative retaining walls. You're correct though - most you see are not aesthetically pleasing
Beautiful! The way y’all finished the top of that column!!! Wow! Thanks for the ideas!!!
Very talented brickworkers to say the least.
May I add that whoever mixed that mortar also knew exactly what they were doing and that is making life much easier for the bricks.
Great video and of course a great job too.
John.
An absolutely masterful performance! Hats off to you, Sir.
You made magic with those bricks and mortar.
Best wishes from Buffalo, NY USA
hey thanks for watching roy, just doing my best
@Hello Roy Lewis, How are you doing?
It looks so easy when you watch someone who knows what he's doing. Very nice!
Yeah it looks eazy. I'm a laborer that's just learning to lay and it's hard to make it look good in a reasonable amount of time
j doubleu get another trade son. Too hard being a Brickie!
@@simonstones1918 yep that's what they all say. Gonna wear my body down too much. Gonna work 2 1/2 more years till my boss retires (He is my best friend's dad) than he said he will help me pay for college.
Thank you Stu and KC .
Excellent work Stu , Very nice detail on the piers B.O.E capping and like the way you've notched the corners, Top job.
I watch this and think I could easily try making a brick wall, but that's what professionals do, make difficult things look piss easy ☑️
My only question: Is Stu a better brick layer or cinematographer?!? I love watching you build things. Really cool skill you have.
Robert Ralph I agree!!
Excellent work, that's one of the nicest walls I've seen for a long while
Music going perfect with the highest quality brick work ever seen before. Thanks for making this video.
1.7 million views stu well done and what a fantastic job you did there.
What a craftsman you are sir, Ive never seen piers finished with that design before.
Fantastic job!
Cheers david
Another great video and what a wall that is. Excellent finish and the pillar finishing is something else grand job to you and KC 👍🏻
You're a master craftsman, Stu. Thanks for sharing/teaching.
I’m a retired builder and I’m here to say this brick mason is a very talented tradesman and he takes great pride in producing only top level work. People that contribute excellent workmanship are always a God send on building projects.
There isn’t any brickys out there that put that much effort in! They’d get you to fit pier caps!! Wish you was down south stu I’d give you all my work!!
Olly Hall exactly!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Stuart, you truly are a craftsman. An inspiration. For a young lad with such talent and without an ego. Keep up the good work. The world is your oyster mate.
Brick wall.....another work of art. Outstanding.
I think a hundred thousand views in one day says it all. Stunning.
Cheers Garry
First, the perfect thumbnail of the cool cap got me interested. Then, 1.1 million views in 5 days wow! Only 10 mins, sure, I’ll watch.
Excellent camera work, pacing and editing. Videos, and many movies, usually fail at pacing. A lot happened in 10 minutes!
Wonderful workmanship and result.
Thanks buddy appreciate that feedback
A TRUE CRAFTSMAN OF HIS TRADE . 1 million attaboys !!!!
All I can say, is bloody brilliant to watch. Thanks for sharing it.
Good looking wall! Matches the house nicely, good retainer for the garden soil and has some real flair to it. Thanks for the video. Great work all round.
I drive past this house daily, the wall looks even better in person.
Andrew Millard where is it
@@sanchojr England, the house is mine
As an old ex brickie (who hasn’t touched a trowel in 20 something years) that was a pleasure to watch. 👍
Incredible brickwork Stu 💪🏻
Looks really nice but that is one expensive wall.
Why didn't you tie the stretcher course half bond into either pier? All you've got tying into the pier is about 1/3 of your header in the closure.
Also, you'll want to hack out a few perps on your bottom course to let the water through.
Stewart Rowlands he’s answered in a previous post to someone that the land behind is being receded back and said they will drill the holes out if need be
@@EnglishHeart1987 OK, I'll have a look for the answer there.
Its English bond, thats how its supposed to be i.e Quarter bond.
An absolute pleasure to watch plenty off work down under Trev
Cool!! Like the way the corner bricks on the post cap level are interlocked into the adjacent bricks.
First thing every morning I punch a brick wall as hard as I can...
Because your best days start with break fist. ✊
🤣🤣🤣 bro
Good job Dane Cook
@@grahamk3708 Dane Cook used to be a legend, I'll take it
Taking back the pride to brick laying like they did in Victorian times
Exactly mate
That is not a wall - that is a priceless work of art
Very well done on showing the brick column cap installation starting at 8:03 good reference material ~
589 professional couch bricklayers didn't like this. I did.
Find it quite therapeutic watching this.
Read the Bible. Tell us how you find that.
Even a coach driver enjoyed watching this. Amazing stuff, makes me realise you have to know what your doing to build a wall
Awesome job boys!
Why You set the wire from the two sides of the bricks?
To check each brick is horizontal front to back as well as along the row.
@@rebeccadonaldson1464 ok thanks, there is no need to use spirit level on each brick - great !
A master builder. Too bad we didn’t see how he cut the bricks to certain sizes.
I learn so much watching you! Always a pleasure...Thanks!!
Nailed it Stu!
Does anyone else find this satisfying?????
Trump better take notes.
U mean democrats?
Lovely work stu. It always surprises me what you can do with laying bricks and art design you can create
You can do anything with bricks and mortar Caroline
Cracking job, love the corner detailing on the caps. I was sucked into a youtube black hole and ended up here, glad I did.
The ideology of our state is built on hatred of the west. The state promotes hatred towards the west. and by and large, we simply envy you, your well-being.
AMAZING!! Pure talent and craftmanship. Stu, you are the man, and Thank you for sharing all your videos, tips and inspiration.
I just realized that that fancy little top corner cut is more than just decorative; it locks it in and keeps it from getting knocked loose.
Such a satisfying video. Brick laying is an art.
Kudos to whoever’s knocking up 👌
Just absolutely brilliant chaps, The are many tradesmen that could learn a thing or two from you!
Now I can do it myself after watching this. It is inspiring
Stunning job!
