    Great video. I know it seems like a simple task but I’ve never understood how it’s done in practice.

    Nicely done. Looking to do exactly the same, this really helps! Do you have equal spacing between all the blocks both horizontal and vertically?

      Thanks, mine did work out pretty even, around 1.5 along the long side, and about 1.2 along the short side, I ended with 15 piers in 3 rows of 5 along the long side! Good luck with yours!

    I was looking at doing the oakwood threaded bar method but the concrete blocks are a much cheaper. Maybe harder to level but small price to pay.

      Yes I considered that method too, but decided on the blocks, again for cost, levelling was ok once you get a rhythm going. Two years since the blocks were done and no issues so far!

    Did you use about one bag of MOT per block? Thx

      Yes probably on average, there were a couple where the ground was softer so I kept digging till it firmed up and I was definitely through the top soil. one had about three in!
