11:00 at night I'm sitting on the toilet watching your video. Amazon backup alarm goes off and my dogs thinks he's here and start going crazy and woke my wife up. She didn't find it as funny as I did. 😂😂😂😂
Block not tied into footer with rebar?
Great videos... awesome to see young tradesmen that do stuff right and care about quality and going the extra mile
Thank you!! I always give 300% or I don't do it at all
Where you located?
Pennsylvania
Excellent production. But, explain what you are saying. What is a "bond mark"? What is "staying on bond"? Etcetera.
Solid workmanship. Appreciate the info, but id like to point out the title says how to lay block corners, but most of the video goes over straight leads.
Im looking to learn techniques so the info is helpful nonetheless, thank you.
Where we are we always use steel in our foundation straight through the brick. How come you all don't do ghe same?
Nice video, I would like to see how in detail how you do the crawl space entrance.
Thank you. I talk about it a little bit in the next video. I didn't get a video of the lentils getting set. I'll try my best to explain it
What’s the advantage of doing this with block vs stemwalls with concrete?
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. 🙏 You rock man!
How accurate are those audible beeping levels that you use? I used to use visual transit and levels that were incredibly accurate and I've always wondered about the audible ones with the targets.
They have a setting where they are within an 1/8 in
I love sharing what I know, you’re welcome!
Thank you!@@masonthemason6412
You guys hiring? Great skill to learn. Learn a trade. Great work guys.
Where ya located
Awesome video, I’m a plumber in Indiana and some times I see block layers but I have never seen them use vertical rebar only wire mesh is this method a regional code .
Hey young fellas. Just wondering if you mix your own mortar and what ratio you are using (3 parts sand 1 part Portland cement?). If you mix your own, what kind of sand are you using? Thanks for the tips in the video. I want to build a greenhouse foundation with 10" block (7 high about 100').
Great job boys 👍
Thanks Ryan!
When you insert the rebar in the old foundation and lay a block over it in the new foundation, do you need to fill in the block all around the rebar with mortar or concrete to grip the rebar? Or what is it that keeps the new foundation from separating laterally from the old one?
Yeah we fill it with concrete when we core pour
Thanks for the corner detail. On average, how many blocks do you lay per day?
In this video I started laying at 12:30 and stopped at 7. I laid 108 block. That was about 16 an hour- so around 130 a day. That was with a level so it was slower. When I run walls I can lay a lot more than that
If I was laying the walls I could lay 3-400 easy in a day
@@masonthemason6412 Wow. We're building soon and have about 900 to lay for our crawl space....debating to do it myself (no experience) or hire it out. Probably decide after I get a couple of prices.
With no experience that's hard. It took me awhile to get the hang of spreading the mud. I will take a video of the Jake's spreading to give you an idea of what it looks like starting out. It also takes time to figure out how to set the blocks. It would be a fantastic learning experience though. It's not too big and shouldn't take too long, even with no experience
@@masonthemason6412 Thanks, your videos really help.
Nice job man!
Thank you!
Cool 😎. Must have had good parents 👍
You’re a G man. What’s the wire you out between the bricks?
Durawall
@@masonthemason6412 thanks!
what's the point of drilling into the footing if you didn't even install the vertical rebars
The inspector said that this is ok, so I did it. It's quick
How deep should the rebar go into the foundation?
Like 4-6 inches
@@masonthemason6412 thanks! Gotta tie in a 8" block wall to the foundation for a bulkhead. Had one of those nasty old steel ones that rotted out. Had no foundation
What part of the country you work in
Pennsylvania
@@masonthemason6412 really glad you are keeping the family business going!! I have been in the trades for 30 years!!
show us how to use a transit sometime?
Yeah for sure! I'll do one on my laser, and my sight transit

How does one apprentice with u?
Where are you from
@@masonthemason6412 I live in Puerto Rico now but I’m from California. I’m a commercial pilot looking for a career change and wiling to move.
I don’t feel comfortable committing to giving you a lifestyle you know ? I’m a new business owner
@@masonthemason6412 I don’t understand your reply? Am I comfortable doing something new? Hell yeah!
I’m not comfortable with hiring people yet
*beats level plumb*
if you worked for free youd be a freemason.... xd nice work
Brother make it easier for u cut back it against the wall put a top mark measure down 8ts put a hard nail and blast them in......
Ok, I finally figured out what you meant haha. Skip lead, just put up outside corner, string on existing foundation. That would of been way easier. Thanks for that tip! That's great to know for next time
@@masonthemason6412 yes sir.... way easier and faster.....
@@masonthemason6412 i always like to string end to end. Most of the time I use line blocks just in case there is a tail in the corner end to end you can work it out better on top course
I'm intrigued by this comment but cannot understand. Could you please translate for a non-builder?
@@keenanonie I wrote it so bad the first time I don't know how mason even understood it lol
🙋♂️👍
The most my grandpa said he did was 556 blocks 12 inch.
I'm not sure what that means
@@masonthemason6412 he laid 556 12 inch block in 1 day.
@@UndisputedRoofer That is impressive. Over 500 is crazy. There's a lot of work in one day
@@masonthemason6412 yea he is a work horse i like all your videos btw.
Definitely sounds like it. Thank you!
Sure was an awful nice video Mr mason
Thanks!!
Apprentices please don't watch this 😂
How to lay block slow
I'm better than him
You might be faster. There’s no way you could be more accurate with heights and measurements. We could have the same quality, you might get the job done faster
@@masonthemason6412 no . I'm accurate with my measurements. I know I would
No I am
What I’m saying is my measurements are perfect. You couldn’t get them closer, it’s impossible. What I’m saying is you could be just as good with quality as me. The only thing you might have on me is speed
@@masonthemason6412 I know I can get u with measurements
At the beginning of the video he talks about "bond marks". I have no idea what that means. Never heard of that before. It would have been helpful if he had explained.
I have many other how to videos that explain it better
Mason mason. PROFILE. PROFILE. Way faster. 👍
