    Bless! We’ve all got to learn. Much easier now. I first carried the hod when just 16 years. Worked through the ‘76 summer, bare chested…got roasted! The pug slopping out the hod would leave white blob-marks, around which the sunburn showed. I would have big boils on my right shoulder - real juicy ones! In those days, we used pole ladders…now, that was hard work on the gable lift (fork lifts were rare then). Flettons, stocks, etc…just hated the footings when bumping out the heavier Staffies and concrete blocks!

  • @Fitzy6968
    @Fitzy6968 Рік тому +5

    Youngsters of today, don’t know they’re born, no forklifts or scaffold platforms to put 0:25 brick pallets on, all bricks and mortar had to be run up rickety wooden ladders, 2nd, 3rd, 4th through to 6 and 7 lifts on 5 storey flats, all by hod and buckets.

      My preference too so you don't have to carry the hod around too in addition to bucket, broom shovel etc.
      Brick clamps are quicker these days too as long as you are the only hod or other hods have to use them too...
