    Good info in this video with the dpc and lintel. Invaluable for non-brickies like me. Yours is one of 3 "must watch" UK brickie channels. Keep it up!

      Thank you very much Chad, appreciate it! I would love to go to America and lay bricks there! Are there many differences between the UK and US when it comes to laying?

    Cracking video again Izzy after watching a few I am now subscribing as I love the way you present yourself, great attitude and work ethic. If your apprentice listens to you and matches your superb attitude to life he will go far, so good luck to him he has a great teacher to learn from. Keep em coming lad. 👍

    Spot on again Izzy been watching every upload. I like your style of teaching, most bricklayers are arseholes and it's rare to learn off a bloke like yourself. I perp my block exactly the way you do 🤣. Enjoy your weekend buddy

      Haha cheers fella appreciate it. Thing is mate..these no need to be an arsehole while teaching someone cos that don't help anyone really😂

  • @gerardfarrell3135

    Only way for an apprentice to learn 1-2-1 and on a small job with a good teacher. Start with the small detailed jobs and build them up. Apprentices' learn so many bad habbits on big commercial sites and dont learn how to work out problems for themselves like on private jobs. Well done your credit to the trade and the brickie that thought you. I hope the young lad understands what hes got 👍.

    • @IzzytheBricky
      @IzzytheBricky  Před 2 lety

      Thanks so much Gerard. Appreciate your comment! Doing my best to explain everything to him. Just so he kinda understands why and what I'm doing. Not really put a trowel in his had yet, but once his loading out and pointing is up to speed I'll show him the ropes.
      I've had some very good mentors, don't think you realise how much you've picked up from people untill you start teaching someone else👌
      Hope you've had a brilliant weekend mate

    I definatly learned a few tips here. I didnt know about the pad stone under steel and few other bits. You really need a rode wireless mic or a go pro media mod or something. Audio is half a video and honestly most this footage should be considered unusable. because of the wind noise. You need a wind foam on the mic to stop that. Also in the edit when you turn around you should put the audio gain up a few then when you turn and face the mic turn the audio wave down again. That is why a wireless mic would save time also because no matter what way your facing the audio is the same. -DB can be used also if its too loud on a certain moment. If you pee on the mic or clap next to is then zoom in all the way in the audio wave, razor tool and snip each side of just the pee of the clap, them right click, audio wave, try -20 DB and work your way up from there. The audio wave in the edit that should never be in the red once during the whole video. keep at top of the green and balance your whole video out this way. Keep it up.

    Cavity slabs pushing the blocks is a pain. We just do the cavity 10mm bigger and then no problems. Fresh slabs out the pack help too before they have time to swell

    Don't need to joint any blockwork we usually make sure we build with full joints and brush finish in Ireland but I suppose that thermilate shite needs all the help it can get proper rubbish them things

    • @IzzytheBricky

    @fatbaz1037 Před 2 lety

    Well done bud but if your teaching your apprentice teach him correctly that pad stone is wrong you have a goal post system on the steels so no pad stone required and when you do need a pad stone you can use a cut of a 6”x4” lintel or a purpose made pad stone 40n concrete block
    Dpc should be bedded aswell but apart from that spot on bud

    • @IzzytheBricky
      @IzzytheBricky  Před 2 lety

      Cheers my guy, yea I figured that about that goal posts system. But I thought the heck with it😂..I know about the Dpc too, what's that old saying, do as I say, not as I do😂

    Proper job mate .. still I’m processing why there is almost no insulation used in some parts of the world .. where I am it’s one of the most important things in building a house having it insulated good and make everything airtight .. isn’t that a topic where you are ?

    • @IzzytheBricky
      @IzzytheBricky  Před 2 lety

      We do use insulation over here mate but only 100mm worth on most builds. Air tightness is a big thing over hear especially on all the new builds
      Hope you have a brilliant weekend mate🍻🍻
