    Nice to see youth in the trade. On those smaller foundations try building smaller, 2 or 3 course leads. Saves a lot of time.

    Great video. I am building 2 columns that's going to be 9ft tall and then put stones on them. I know I will need rebar so my question is once the footing and rebar are set. Do I have to get on a tall ladder go up and down in order to lay the blocks over the rebar? Is there an easier way?

  • @tulz43
    @tulz43 Před rokem

    Thank you for this! You’ve answered a ton of questions I didn’t even know I had. Do you have anything on setting the first blocks? How to make sure they are level over the run of say 20 feet?

    • @nizamismail9554

    Question, can you build straight up from the edge of a footer or concrete slab?

    Aqui no Brasil usamos madeira de sarrafo pra segurar a linha com 2 pregos e si ponha 2 linhas fica melhor ainda uma em cima e uma em baixo

      That’s what’s up bro I work with my pops and solo nothing like working for yourself! Wish I was a lil closer I’d love to come up there and help you lay some block. I respect your hustle your gonna go far or destroy yourself in the process lol. Jus kidding but us masons are definitely a different breed. You the man!

    Clamp seems the easiest. Those 1st two seemed like a total pain in the butt, especially for me being disabled. I do not have use of my right hand except to hold things down. But even if I was fully able, those first ones still seem like a bunch of extra, tiring moves. And the one requiring you to hammer into finished blocks and mud is just plain dumb.😮
