    Замечательная у вас получилась
    стена , смотрю не отрывая взор.
    Если бы был у меня такой же
    как у вас замечательный молоток,
    я бы тоже построил такую же стену.
    Но где же взять столько камня ?
    Да, жаль что от моего города до
    ближайшего каменного карьера
    более 1500 километров !

    Nice job..sound advice and good explanation of the fundamentals, strength and pleasing on the eye..only starting myself so speed is least of my concerns.. as for hammers..meh!..in my own profession which is not stonework i would never tell a tradesman which tools he should choose..perhaps if someone asked advice i would..

      Thank you for the kind comments and the feedback on the Hammer. It is a little bit of a bad habit truth be told, I did have a 2ld walling hammer with me, and in my workshop I have a wide range of different hammers, I went through a stage of buying too many all different shapes and sizes from brand new to old from boot sales & markets. But the little brick hammer I like to dress stone and find myself with my hand on it a lot more than I should. Like I say bad habit but I make it work, again thank you for watching 👍

    Me thinks the Stone Ranger could use a toffee hammer - and still make a fantastic job!

    Thank you for this video. On the uphill side of the gap, I noticed a large tree near the wall. Do tree roots heave up the wall, making it more prone to tumbling down. Or is this type of wall flexible enough to move with the roots?

    • @TheStoneRanger
      @TheStoneRanger  6 місяців тому

      Hi, thanks for watching. So, definitely, the roots of the trees are a problem for the walls, and when walling around a woodland like this, it can be even more of an issue. And again, you are right; the nature of a dry stone wall having more movement in them over a mortared wall helps. But ultimately the dry stone wall has to stay within the boundary. So, when they fall, you fix the problem and rebuild the wall. I hope that answers your question.

    Thank you so much for sharing. This was extremely helpful! Just wondering, do you level the string lines with a line level or just by eye? Would the level not depend on where the holes are in the wall where you fix the pins into? Many thanks and keep up the great work!

      Hi Magill,
      Thank you for watching and for the kind words. I use both, but mainly with gapping. I just use my eye. When on a wall with walling pins/frames, I will use the line bubble.

    Nice wall, I cannot stand ox hammers, I'd recommend an estwing or Drapper, much more comfortable, less tingy and longer lasting

    • @TheStoneRanger
      @TheStoneRanger  Рік тому

      Thank you👍, I don’t actually mind the OX hammer. I have definitely had worse hammers, but at the same time, I have had much better. But I do fully understand where you are coming from with the ringing noise.⚒️⚒️

    It might have been a good idea to mention that the stones you to put to one side at the start are the tops s. Most beginners don't do this and end up with no matching tops.

    • @TheStoneRanger
      @TheStoneRanger  7 місяців тому +1

      Hi Dave, yes you are right. Every time I make a video, I try to plan what I am going to say. Then I press record and it goes out of the window, always missing something out, this time about the coping stone. Thanks for watching 👍

  • @Bobby-mq9ys

    Great video mate. Out of interest, how much would a waller charge for gapping up a metre or so like this? Just curious 🤔

    • @TheStoneRanger
      @TheStoneRanger  Рік тому +1

      Thanks, Bobby. Pricing might have changed since I was gapping regular but £30 per meter was my price, this was 6/7 years back now

    • @Bobby-mq9ys
      @Bobby-mq9ys Рік тому +4

      @@TheStoneRanger Interesting. Yeah it's always a difficult one. I feel like dry stone work/ walling is very under priced compared to all other trades. If someone builds 3 metres a day, it works out around minimum wage, where as a brick layer, or plasterer might charge £160 - £200+ a day. I'd argue good stone work is more difficult.

    Would it look bad if your to concrete the cracks by chance?

    • @TheStoneRanger
      @TheStoneRanger  Рік тому

      Hi Holly, thank you for watching. It wouldn't be ideal to concrete all the joints in the wall. You can point the wall with a cement and sand mix, but if you are doing this, you would be better off building the wall with mortar in the center to begin with. I hope this helps. If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask. TheStoneRanger ⚒️⚒️
