One from Stu Crompton?

Man I wish I was there. Laying out a old wall with reused bricks and hanging with your dad priceless. Awesome Stu. Enjoy and thanks for a great set of videos.

There is nothing better than working along side with your dad. Moments will cherish for the rest of life. Master craftsmanship. Job well done.

Master craftsmen doing what they do best. Perfection!! 👌

Does KC not remember building that when he wor a lad Stu 😉, looking nice now 💯, lovely little 🐸 or maybe a toad 🐸💕

Fantastically neat job as usual stu ! Perhaps it would of been better to use hydraulic lime (nhl) for the build rather than hydrated as there’s then no cement involved in the job and more like the original build

Stu and KC it's looking ace! Actually love working with old bricks and lime motar. Going to look grand again 👍

Another great video from you guys. Thanks and keep them coming soon. 👍

Outstanding, lads. So glad I have re-subscribed to the channel! Looks incredible. 👏👏👏

Stu you are truly skilled, amazing talent

Nice to see the Stu Crompton trowel in action

Just amazing with your skills and craftsmanship. Please teach more young people your skills, they need to have a value.

I worked as a brick tender one summer back in the late ‘70’s to pay for my college education. A nicely built brick wall is a thing of beauty.

nice work and saved the frog 👏

Looking good Stu looking good 👍

We call them story poles.. love the work you guys do..✌️

Just cracking work as always

Nice 👍 I remember in the 80's working in Germany, there was me Dennis , Oz , Neville and Bomber we had to build a wall like that on a site in Dusseldorf.👍👏

Question please regarding patio doors being fitted as you have done them in previous videos. My question is I'm having a patio door fitted in 2 weeks, do you fix to a metal lintel above? Or is that a no no. Is screwing to either side of the brickwork sufficient to stop frames being loose and possible movement?

Very good!

Master craftsman, you are so good

Korean bricklayer is rooting for you :D

When you do work like this fixing old and matching that's what craftsmanship is looks great

I've seen it all now...using profiles on radius work. Are you scared of plumb points? 😅

Is that the old English garden wall bond there?

I'd have bent down every 2/3 course and eye'd them through . Different strokes for different folks I suppose . A ggod job Stu . 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I have done that, trouble is you have to walk around the wall because the radius is that big so you can’t eye it in stood in one spot.

To eye the lines in you have to see both corners, how can you see down the lines of both corners on a curved wall. Genuine question, im open to learning.

Soon parkour guys will jump from this wall beautifully 😊

Got the same boots.. worst I've ever owned , lace's are shite. Stu's quality of work is on point as always 👍

That kinda looks like the entry gate area to a royal residence?

Black Rifle & Scope look to be the best option ?.

Is it a true radius or a french curve or accelerated curve?

Hi noticed you are doing Frogs down.. any reason for this other than saving Lime mortar??

I’m matching up to how it was originally layed. I think it’s because the beds are so thin 3-5 mm that’s how they did it back then.

I’m not a bricky so I have no idea 😂 but If I had to guess you’re going to rake out the old joints as well and point it all up together to match.. or leaving it all raked out..

I also have no idea. Do you rake it out then add a mortar layer on top that's a better colour match?
