Tag A Tile for Sunday School Stories
We're transforming our Sunday School Hall into a heritage-led community hub and inviting supporters of the essential repairs and renovations to make their mark on a roof tile, donated by Keymer, that will be part of our Sunday School Hall roof for years to come.
Now the roof tiles are adorned with messages and drawings of inspiration, advice, and encouragement from those who donated at our Open Day on Saturday 14 September 2024. A perfect fit for Sunday School Stories Project that will see us bring bustling creative activities, skill-building workshops, and breaking down the barriers to heritage and culture, amplifying the voices of underrepresented groups and local heritage.

I use the Vox Humana and tremulant when I try oit harmonies
That was very very informative ❤
Now I know what NHL 3.5 or NHL 5 stands for! An excellent video, from which I learned a lot even though I've been using lime for a while.
I appreciate this content. I have a 1900s Baltimore row house and someone repointed the entire house with cement. I am undertaking a massive restoration project to ensure the building lasts.
Truly magnificent and rich with history. I appreciated and felt the narrator's enthusiasm and love for the building.
Outstanding tutorial. I'm just learning to work with lime. Thank you so much.
Is the red sand a sharp sand in your lime putty mix. I wish to point a brick wall and would prefer a redder mix. If so could you tell me what the sand is and where i can get it from please.
I needed to see this as I hope to be tuck pointing someday…
That looks like a cross cut saw
Had me howling with the i wish i hadnt of sniffed that sulphur at the end 😂
1397 they did not invent saw pits . this is another one of these vids where so called experts pretend to now . i have been in conservation for 35 plus years actually making a living doing it not talking nonsense.
This guy also makes a living doing it, this video series is related to his restoration work on Union Chapel in London. Your comment comes off as insecure edit: after doing 20 mins of research online I've found evidence of pitsaw technology being used by the romans. stands to reason, it's obviously a very primitive method. who's the fake expert now?
@@ParsleyPunch pit saws are not primitive as you claim the were first used by cabinet makers and furniture makers in the late 17th century for cutting boards . adzes and draw knives were used previously .the timbers being used were split into shape also on medevil ships just the sapwood was removed as it encouraged pests . most left in the round .the technology of the sawpit is not roman what so ever . have a great day expert .
always apply with the lats not the opposite as it makes the overlap on the back of the lats very in consistant extra weight .using less .
What do you mean? This isn't very clear
Hi, what's the approved method of paint removal RE a brick wall which pertains to a listed building?
excellent video! More please
Interesting.. excluding the "carbon footprint" bit if honest.
We need more of this type of instruction videos. They are invaluable. Thank you
This video was a life-saver for notating a piece for organ. Thank you so much!
The sliding panel wedges exist in joinery at Portland Place in London. It was a surprising discovery and I haven't seen it since.
He must have put his own beard hair in the plaster at some point..
I like that you take safety precautions seriously.
I am overwhelmed by the amount of information....i have very much interest in this field...like this is my favourite thing...also i live in kolkata,India...which itself is a city full of heritage buildings so I always think that how can we conserve thse buildings so that they remain as same as when they were built hundreds of years ago...VERY PLEASED FROM THIS VIDEO ... LOTS OF LOVE AND BLESSINGS TO THE TEAM❤
Anyone got thoughts on Jacobean daub as plaster? The place we're restoring has quite a lot of what looks like hemp shiv, as well as clay and hair. At the end of the day, suspect it doesnt really matter - more a questionnof thebtexture and colour once dried...
Hello wanted to ask, in your opinion is possible to use cement (for better setting) with hydrated lime and sand (0,5:1:5 ratio) for rendering a brick wall layed with lime mortar, as it is quite difficult to find hydraulic lime in our region? Or even small amounts of cement will trap moisture, make wall unbreathable and ruin the bricks? Kind regards
Definitely no cement

Most absorbing & informative - much appreciated!
excellent video thank you
Really enjoyed this, took me back to when I was an apprentice. If you use the soot surely this would cause sulphate salt contamination of the mortar and bring with it issues you get in and around chimney breasts?
Stick a decent sized stone in your mixer and that acts to squeeze and work your mix. You’ll go through the odd mixer barrel but you’ll save a whole lot of work!
How much hair?
Traditional....you mean not using those stupid concrete blocks
❤
We need to see more of this man. 👌
К сожалению не владею английским на слух- увы((..Скажите- ваша речь идет о консервации дерева с помощью извести?
I remember when lime wasn't available in fine agregate in bags like today.Actualy it was but it was very expensive.Then people were buying lime in form of stones and they dig hole in ground and put all that stones in it and then pour water on it and it was nasty.Later you have something like white soapy lime and you simply grab out of hole how much you need and mix with sand and you have excellent mortar which last forever.
this guy is an absolute professional
Great and much needed series , incredibly well communicated. Thank you.
Really wonderful explanation and presentation thank you.
Wish I’d seen this before my renovation project! Still, very useful information for the future!
Love love your videos. I've worked as a carpenter in Canada for over 2 decades and this type of knowledge is not something that is taught in my lifetime, at least not here. Even though I've worked on many old houses which required this type of knowledge to properly repair.
Spawling we call it and it’s everywhere. Unfortunately in a monetised society we can only advise owners on the best methods of repair, ultimately its cost that wins out.
Very interesting and informative video. I use Lime for pointing and rendering up here around the Lake District on Substrates like Slate, walling Stone etc and now having a bit of experience with it, the skill is in the prep and time, it’s a patient skill and is not a one size fits all approach. Gable ends, Church Towers and floors are my usual jobs. Your videos are some of the best I’ve seen on this subject. Thanks.
Can you do a demo on hot mix mortar as opposed to dry slake ?
If you add the lime to the water you will get boiling mix but not explosive.
Thanks, very informative. Would rolling this stuff in a high quality plastic bag be much quicker?
