    Very good video for any apprentice coming into the trade, just a shame to many brickies forget the basics

    Hi Edward I agree with David Hoyles,my son who is a bricklayer lays the bed like you I did not teach him that method I only spread that way when restrictive Ihave proved pulling the mortar to you is much faster way of spreading more control.

    Great tutorial!
    It would be great to know what mortar mix to use for what situation.

    Thanks for comment Twentyone twos, as a general rule the mortar mix should always be weaker than the material being used. I would use 3:1 anything below ground level, 5:1 general brickwork, 6:1 lightweight insulation blocks. Building sand, Cement (OPC or mastercrete) water and a little plasteriser (Feb) to increase workability. Some bricklayers like to add hydrated lime, personally I don't.

      cuttski it's a little bit hypercritical to call someone thick when you cant put a sentence together without swearing and your grasp of the English language is so poor!
      I guess your failure to answer my questions is down to lack of knowledge!

    Hello Edward. Could you please make a video about classic english flat jack arch, I have been trying to find a video tutorial about it for a long time, but unsuccessful. Thank you!

    Excellent! Why do you not groove the outside corner line but groove the rest? And do you also do that at the end of the run?
