That’s an awesome training .
Plus the removable lime n sand mix 👍
Thanks for the comment!
This gentleman is a very good Instructor, I Thurley enjoyed the video
Thanks for the comment!
I am a beginner again.
Haven't touched the block in 40 years. Great video .
Great instruction and teaching skills thank you so much 👍
I'm going to be putting four courses in a hole in the ground on a slab. Corner running to 2 walls.
Wish me luck
Thanks for the comment!
Best teacher ever!
Thanks for the comment!
You are a good teacher. Keep it up.
Thanks for the comment!
God bless this channel for real.
Thanks for the comment!
With love from Nigeria. I have watched videos on blocks-laying techniques. This in my opinion is the most satisfying. I am impressed by your simplicity, expertise and stick-to-it attitude. You already have a fan here. What I would like to see is a more practical tutorial where you have a project in the fields, how you set out the lines, excavate the soil and pour concrete, then of course erect the walls. If you already have it, be kind enough to drop the link here. Thanks man for the good work. God bless 🙏
Thanks for the comment! I'm working on a job right now that I wish I had started videoing from the beginning. Maybe some time in the future when I start a new project.

Ok. I look forward to seeing it. Thanks
@@masonry201also extremely excited for a layout video at a job site. Thank you for the excellent channel
MashaAllah great construction 🏗️🏫🏫🏫🏫🏫🏗️🏗️
Im happy to see this video mashaAllah🏗️🏫🏫🏫🏫🏫🏫🏫🏫🕌
Great video
Thanks for the comment!
Perfect 👍
Thanks for the comment!
Ок . No problems 😃
Я брат, тоже каменщик, из Эстонии. Знаешь где это??😊
you should do a video on z leads and 45s
Great wall🏫
How would you go about continuing from this layout. Do you set all 4 corners and infill the middle or stick with the layout to the other corner and cut blocks closest to the next corner ?
Great question! Corners are built AFTER the layout course is established. One single course of block is laid around to the perimeter to determine cuts, spacing, openings, etc.
Once that is established, corners can then be built on the proper bond (spacing) so there's no guesswork to how it will work out in the middle of walls or on ends.
Thanks for the comment!
MashaAllah Good man🏗️🕌🕌🕌🕌🕌🕌🏫
The Lay out is my problem.
Blocks measure 8 5/8"x8 5/8"x15 5/8".
To finish corner to corner, U lay out to the 5/8th" and to come out with the Finished Block on the other end-
15 5/8"+3/8"= (16")?
@@chrislnflorida5192 no, lengths will end in the 5/8” number. Thanks for the comment!
Allahumarhahum🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦
Were here in Fl., block is Stucco finish.
Im still trying to figure out HOW to get the Finished Height and Corners, from your Layout?
I kinda of under stand the Height, should be on 8" Increments.
The Runs are what im having trouble with.
@@chrislnflorida5192 blocks are 7-5/8 x 7-5/8 x 15-5/8 without mortar joints.
Try to keep wall lengths to 4” increments, easier to make cuts, sometimes you won’t need any cuts.
Heights will be on exact 8” increments.
Lengths will end in a 5/8” increment. ( 12’ 3-5/8”) , (18’ 7-5/8”) , etc.
Thanks for the comments!
Charlie collision won the super trowel competition. No live stream unbelievable this day and age.
No way! :) Thanks for letting me know. I'm pretty sure it was recorded by someone, I'm looking forward to seeing the counts! Thanks again!
@@masonry201 dutch bricklayers have a bit up on instagram.
Luke Lovegrove came second ,lost it on deductions according to Andy from bricklayers world wide edit Ashley Mahoney came 2nd . The presentations are in the last link I left Andy from bricklayers world wide,s video
czcams.com/users/shorts4cU6nZWBQEY?feature=share set up not as good as spec mix . Bricks stacked on the floor mortar boards a bit low .

Would this be suitable for a 14' tall workshop shop building wall? My HOA requires a masonry finish, so I was thinking something like this with a sone veneer for the bottom 3-4' and stucco then up to the top.
Thanks for the question! Sure, that would look great. They sell transition pieces specifically for that type of wall. Transition from stone to stucco. Sort of like a sill. You could probably pull up an approved drawing online of a garage. and have it already figured where rebar will go vertically in the wall if needed.
And after building that do you guys knock it down and resuse?
Yes, everything gets reused, as long as the unit doesn’t break! Thanks for the question.
What kind of bolt cutters are you using to cut wire???
Thanks for the question! I think just regular, Home Depot or Lowes bolt cutters. Nothing special. I think they're 14"
Watch at 1.5 speed
At least! Maybe 2x.
Can we get a 4" corner video? I know how to build one, I just always want to learn some new things from someone else. Especially with explanations and not just grumps yelling at you haha
I like that idea, as there are a few variations of 4” corners. Stay tuned I guess!😂
omg, he bent metal with his hands
😆Thanks for the comment!
Guys good
Thanks for the comment!
@@masonry201 greetings from Local 1 Bricklayers NYC 🗽
Is your mortar white because it doesn't have cement?
Correct! It's just a lime and sand mix. It can be reused over and over, even after it dries.
How many shovels of sand per shovel of lime?
Thank you!
@@margaritovelazquez1815 The ratio is 4 parts sand to 1 part lime. So 4 shovels of sand to 1 shovel of lime. Thanks for the question!
how do you clean up after you've done your work? do you sell those structures? lol
Great question! The mortar that's used is "practice" mortar. It's just a lime and sand mix. The projects are taken apart, the units get scraped clean, and the mortar and units get reused.
@@masonry201 OMG you responded ok great so what is the percentage of lime and sand and water? I'm really trying to learn by myself because there doesn't seem to be a decent school near where I'll be at!
@@zhugeliang777 It's a 4 to 1 mix. 4 parts sand to 1 part lime. Dry mix them together first, then add water. A mortar mixer is preferred, but you can just use a hoe and a wheelbarrow also. For a smaller amount, you can mix in a bucket with a trowel.
As for the amount of water, just add it slowly until you get it to the consistency you want.
@@masonry201 Thank you!!! Ever tried mixing mortar in a cement mixer instead of a mortar mixer? (I'd rather not rent another tool if I can avoid it).
@@zhugeliang777 Yes, you'll be just fine mixing it in a drum (concrete) mixer. Most contractors use them to mix mortar in the UK, not so much in the US.
