When I started, it was all LBC (commons) in the footings, and galvanised fish tale ties, oh , and 9inch solid concrete solid blocks, Happy days 🤣🤣. Due to retire December ,reached the magic 66, going part time, would probably seize up if I stopped. Enjoyed the video 👍
Those galvanised fish ties are nasty, I’ve my head on them a few times 🤦♂️, 9 inch concrete blocks are gut busters, enjoy retirement, I think you have to do something though , and I don’t working fit notes , I’ve heard vicious rumours that this can happen when you retire 😂😂, cheers for watching 👍👍
Hello Jack, I’m slowing down now , I’m an old timer, or so they tell , but the trouble is they still need the old timers, so I play up a bit well quite a lot really 😀😀, have you laid any lately? Keep troshing boi 😀👍
only when the body allows ,shame with the rates they are paying on site now ,watching these young blokes on you tube we old geezers are the best , havnt heard fuck all from morrissy lately hes gone proper miserable not even a phone call
@@BuildingwithBudd Hi boss. Good thanks. As an engineer i found that method fascinating and so simple. People think bricklaying is just a matter of sticking one on top of another. How wrong are they! 👍👍
Before I build any corners , I set up profiles as to where the building will sit, I then use those as my guide for digging out the footings and for the brickwork as well, hope that answers your question, on the video that’s the line I am levelling down from, many thanks for watching 🧱🧱
Footings we’re really deep so split the difference, but it’s not all bad gave the camera man a chance to get on the trowel without doing any damage, cheers for watching 👍👍🧱
You don’t need lasers unless it’s a bigger area to be honest reverse levelling is accurate. Any discrepancy when reverse levelling with straightedge or not cancels it out. Just like the old water level you could use with a profile the first corner you built use that and move water level to each corner and mark including existing walls.
Not on these ones, to be fair in forty years never been asked to use engineering bricks below DPC , must be a regional thing, we are in deepest darkest Norfolk 😂😂👍
Why not use trench blocks or build two skins using concrete blockwork below ground or are you really old school coming out of ground with brickwork although bricks might be lighter when your getting on a bit
I’m just sick of lugging blocks around in footings, I just find it easier to do it this way, just a personal thing, when on out on a job anywhere and someone wants to pay to do it in block work then I will, appreciate you watching, 👍👊🧱
How long is wall U wanting roughly? I'm in Cleckheaton so few miles from U,give me your number or something, I contact U and arrange 2 meet and U can show me where U want it 2 go then I can work out a price yeah?
Bricklayer should be getting $10 a brick every one else is making hundreds of thousands of dollars and the poor brick layer laying for free to work like a ffff slave. Every stop laying bricks then U can ask what U like but no they keep working for free 80 cents a brick is for free
I don’t tape out at that point because bricks very so much in size , I rather lay them out, guess I’m just stuck in my ways, but it works for me, appreciate you watching and comments 👍👍
It’s only in the last few years that trench blocks turned, that’s the future I get that, we always used to use concrete 4 inch blocks, I just don’t want to lift them anymore 👍👍🧱
The bricks are upside down !!! Mad its block in footing or bring it up with concrete is faster cheaper . What about engineering brick under dam course... but bricks are upside down unbelievable...
I’ve been doing bricklaying for 5 years now. Wish I could have been taught by a older like you. I’ve Learnt most stuff of CZcamsrs
Cheers for watching 👍👍🧱
People might take the piss when u say that but I’m the same, ex hoddy on the trowel learn more alot off CZcams lol
Good on you go for it 👍👍
Nice demo of transferring height to start
When I started, it was all LBC (commons) in the footings, and

Happy days 🤣🤣.
Due to retire December ,reached the

Bud proper old school I learned like this but have moved on to profile and trench block. But you have made my month keep it up pall god bless you
Cheers Sheridan , I thought I would put it out how it used to done, I’m classed as an old school dinosaur 😂😂 appreciate you watching, 👍👍
Proper tuition. Simple but affective levelling technique. Just subscribed, looking forward to more good stuff.
Cheers Paul, many thanks for watching 👍😀
Love your videos,Bud, old school, but good school, from a fellow brickie on The Emerald Isle,🇨🇮🇨🇮
Thanks Hot poker much appreciated 👍👍🧱
Budd, quality work as always my brother. Keep it up boss man. Big G coming on canny👍💪
Cheers Lewis many thanks for watching 👏👏👍🧱
Ooooo! I see your tusking the corners fella. My Forman wouldn’t allow that. Great video.
Tod, I have to put my hands up and say I don’t know what tusking the corners means, many thanks for watching 👍👍🧱
WEE BUZZ!!YOUR A GOD DAMP LEGEND
Even in fast forward its slow and painful 🤣
Sehr gute Arbeit , es macht Spaß euch zuzuschauen .🙋♂️
Hugo many thanks for watching 👍👍🧱
How come you do it all in bricks? Could you not of used block or trench to get you to ground level?
Could have , but I just find it easier to do, it just works for me, many thanks for watching 👍👍🧱
I see the labourer has caught up with Bud speed 😂
🤦♂️👍🧱
where ya been boi ,nearly 2 weeks to get out of that corner allways good to see a new vid 😊

Could of done with a few more meters of concrete in that footing and a few concrete blocks
Impressive way to transfer levels Budd 👍👍👍
Doug how are you fella, I’ve been transferring that way for years boi 👍
@@BuildingwithBudd Hi boss. Good thanks. As an engineer i found that method fascinating and so simple. People think bricklaying is just a matter of sticking one on top of another. How wrong are they! 👍👍
Your right there Doug, that’s the easy bit, it’s all the Prep to get to that point, 👍👍🧱
Hello bud, what do you use to get each corner inline with each other? Would love a reply! Cheers
Before I build any corners , I set up profiles as to where the building will sit, I then use those as my guide for digging out the footings and for the brickwork as well, hope that answers your question, on the video that’s the line I am levelling down from, many thanks for watching 🧱🧱
Bloody back breaking but Looks good mate! Out of curiosity, How comes the footings we’re so low?
Footings we’re really deep so split the difference, but it’s not all bad gave the camera man a chance to get on the trowel without doing any damage, cheers for watching 👍👍🧱
The back breaking is only on a certain hight
Enjoyed watching that 👍☘☘
Many thanks for watching 👍
Wouldn’t it be easier to use blocks and quicker just below ground level
It would have been, but I just wanted to revisit my youth and show how we used to do it, cheers for watching 🧱👍
Brick or block it still works ..well done
Outlaw60 your spot on there is no right way or wrong way, this way works for me, many thanks for watching 👍👍🧱

Brilliant video thank you 😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cheers Brent many thanks for watching 👏👏👍
Rocking on budd 🤟

Like it old school 👍👍 just like me
Brendan old school is the best school, all the best from old Norfolk 👍👏
WHY on earth are you using poxy LBC bricks below ground ????
Because I can
Brilliant people ❤️👍😎👍
Many thanks for watching 👍
Budd get your shorts back on they cheer the country up
John it’s to cold , nearly time for long Johns 😂🧱👍
Mantab pasang bata merah good
Dad used to say abt footings. Head down Arse up lol
And a bad back, cheers for watching 👍👍
Are they engineering bricks you use in footings?
Not on these ones, to be fair in forty years never been asked to use engineering bricks below DPC , must be a regional thing, we are in deepest darkest Norfolk 😂😂👍
@@BuildingwithBudd Thanks mate.Love your videos keep them coming.
Excelente trabajo 💯 👊 🧱👏💪👌🏻
Thank you Vianka 👏👏🧱👍
Worked in the building trade for 50 years never put facings bricks off a slab surprised nhbc passed this,this will not be allowed on a large site

@@BuildingwithBudd fair enough we all have our own ways👍
Looking at ground level why do all in bricks ???
Wayne because I can that simple, I’m old and find it easier doing it in brick work, cheers for watching 👍👍🧱
Get a gauge tape saves so much messing
Bud I love you ! But come back in10 years ! Then you will be able to teach........maybe!
very nice wouldn't use LBC brick in a footing though
Best place for LBC s are in a crusher for hardcore
Hi do you do work in the west Yorkshire area.
Unfortunately we don’t go that far, we are old Norfolk bois 👍
Where in West Yorkshire r U and what is it U want building?
@@andrewbirch893 a retaining wall. I'm calling from dewsbury. How about you?
How long is wall U wanting roughly? I'm in Cleckheaton so few miles from U,give me your number or something, I contact U and arrange 2 meet and U can show me where U want it 2 go then I can work out a price yeah?
Bricklayer should be getting $10 a brick every one else is making hundreds of thousands of dollars and the poor brick layer laying for free to work like a ffff slave. Every stop laying bricks then U can ask what U like but no they keep working for free 80 cents a brick is for free
Where's your brick force?
Why didn't you just tape it out for your bond ?
I don’t tape out at that point because bricks very so much in size , I rather lay them out, guess I’m just stuck in my ways, but it works for me, appreciate you watching and comments 👍👍
Bot knocking you mate it's interesting watching your videos I work in footing on site and never seen them done with bricks.
It’s only in the last few years that trench blocks turned, that’s the future I get that, we always used to use concrete 4 inch blocks, I just don’t want to lift them anymore 👍👍🧱
Fair enough anyway I enjoy watching your videos mate keep it up
👍👍
Why not using blocks
I can’t lift them 👍
The bricks are upside down !!! Mad its block in footing or bring it up with concrete is faster cheaper . What about engineering brick under dam course... but bricks are upside down unbelievable...
my bad it not lbc
Terrible job no trench or engineering
Why don't you just set up profiles much easier then setting up corners like that and where is your brick force mate
