    Agreed that toothed joint is easier done as you go along, filling the joint when pointing up at the end is time consuming and never the same as mortar in the main work is going off while a fresh load is being pressed in

    How did you cut out every second brick so neatly? I know to use a large diamond blade grinder or demo saw on the horizontal mortar but how did you cut the vertical mortar so the half brick just pops out? Drill? My experience using a drill just damages the one above and then it cracks.. Your vid just shows the end result. Thanks
