The old craftsmen knew how to lay the stones the same way without the template. Did it myself without template and it still Looks more organic than the stereotype Pattern shown here.

Great job

[@savedfaves]

Always wondered how they did those curved shapes in cobble. Wooden templates... makes sense.

[@StephenMurrayCookcookie]

They use strings lines a measure normally I designed these for more speed and to maytain 90% and 45 % lin Es across the setts 👍👊🍪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@Hertog_von_Berkshire]

Fascinating!
To begin with, the outer two templates sit partially flush to the top of the framing sett-work. Later, the outer templates sit like the centre one, with all three feet flat on the ground.
So do the outer templates have removable feet, or are there special ones with missing feet?
Why do I worry about things like this?

[@GrowerTalks]

Love it! I have walked so many streets in Europe wondering how in the world those Roman cobbles are laid, and now I know! Thanks!
