With Ryan's ru-vid.comUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE plan I was like one taken by the hand and led step by step from start to finish. Thank you very much Ryan!
You will need to use armoured cable run from you House I would advise getting an electrician to do it for you hope this helps thank you for your question.
I pursue the entire Ryan's Shed Plans and had the favorite alternatives to make a shed game plan. ru-vid.comUgkx28Z8z61iXUVQQPSL3K9UZJw0Hm7ylSiH Using Ryan's Shed Plans alone, the shed itself is phenomenal . I understood all the instructions more correctly with Ryan's Shed Plans. Honestly, this is an extra benefit of Ryan's Shed Plans.
I'm a bricklayer and this is pretty damn decent work for a non bricklayer DIY'er. I'm also a DIY'er at many different things. If you have the brains and put in the effort you can do whatever you want. May not be as good as a professional but so friggen what.. You learn as you're going. I applaud this guy for doing things for himself. Too many people are afraid if trying to do anything anymore. Nice work man
i have got to say ab fab this video as inspired me to build my own shed from block . Most videos on here put you off as i have never done building before. got me footings in now waitin for for deliv. of blocks . I appreciate video mate keep in makin them cheerz Ade
Don’t buy that tool pal it’s a pile of crap I brought one it’s not what makes out to be, learn some basics and use that on your project and buy some tools and gauges and u should be ok. Better still do a weekend bricks course and learn the basics . 👍
Oi, stop giving this bloke a hard time! He's just a bloke building a shed, and looks pretty good to me, like many other diy'ers. So give it a rest you so called professionals! I say, stuff em and keep up the good work.
Perfect response. Fantastic job if you ask me, especially as they're not 'qualified' brickies. They ought to be proud of what they're achieving. Well done!
Thanks. Great video. I've never laid a brick in my life, but I've always wanted to learn how. I see you guys are using the the Bricky thing. I've actually been looking for a video like this (which wasn't a promotional for the Bricky). Seeing a pro mason using it definitely makes me feel better about buying one. Thanks again.
We had a good laugh with the mason's helper for mortar thickness, like when my friends laughed at the blinkers on my new Harley. We don;t need no morter helpers or blinkers. I'll let you know when I'm turning. Of course corners without a plumb-bob is an art form but without thin wire rebar the strength is a bit, how you say, bullocks. Just saying with love for all workers. Lawson
It is great satisfaction when you build things yourself, as long as you get your footings, levels, and all square etc and take your time, it mostly comes good.
VERY helpful, and should you ever decide to make something with brick and stone that would be great because I'm thinking about covering my house that way and once i get that done and build a garage i want to do the same thing to that.
Could you tell me. What is a breeze block. One of them new light blocks? There building sheds, houses with the. Are the any good. Heard they are the go in London
Use yellow sand to build with mix 3 sand to 1 cement then use double washed sand to render with mix 4 sand to 1 cement and put a waterproof additie in it dont forget to subscribe to the channel thanks for watching.
Impressive stuff mate. Looks like you were using the brickie mate? I want to construct a garden room/garage with double cavity wall - first two courses went down and were 7kn concrete blocks and are square... I am thinking (and really thinking hard at this stage) of doing the remaining blockwork myself this myself given footings/foundation and first couple of courses down. Can I ask: 1. How did you ensure the mix was consistent for the whole build? 2. If I want to have sides of outer leaf in concrete block and then front/back in red facing bricks as they look nicer and dont want to render - is there a way to tie them together in the corners? 3. Not planning to hang much on the walls but for inner leaf is using the intermediate 3.5kn aggregate blocks fine? Alot easier to handle... Thanks
With the mix I used a bucket think it was 3 buckets of sand to 1 bucket of cement and if I’m right you can put 1 bucket of lime in it too but I don’t think it’s needed.
With your other question I don’t no you’ll need to as a Brik layer I’m sure there’s a few lads on here that could answer that for you just keep checking the messages on this post sorry I can’t help you.
1. Can't go wrong with buckets 👍 2. There is! You have 2 options: block are 2 brick long and 3 brick deep. Almost building materials are uniform to eachother so could build it like a coin feature like bbbbbbbfffffffff bbbbbbbfffffffff bbbbbbbfffffffff bbbbffffffffffffff bbbbffffffffffffff bbbbffffffffffffff bbbbbbbbfffffff bbbbbbbbfffffff bbbbbbbbfffffff b = block f = brick Or you can have a completely vertical mortar joint and use wall ties or even a wall starter to reinforce it. You'll see this on a lot of newer homes, but they're typically movement joints. 3. 3.5 should be fine but it does depend on the size of the structure aswell.
I laugh at these idiots who want to school you on all the things you did wrong. You built yourself a shed…good job. Could you have done some things better, of course, we all could. I’m a veteran bricklayer and I think everyone should have a chance at laying some brick or block in their life, it’s therapeutic.
Great job. Has everything stood the test of time ? I want to build a 2 metre high by 10 metre straight garden wall and was hoping to use this tool, do you think it will be up to the job? Thanks and best of luck
After watching this video I feel more confident now and I am thinking to build it on my own. My oryginał plan was to use timber which I've purchased already for £1100. I could easily sell it. Imagine same timber would cost me £1660 50% more after six months! Timber prices gone up crazy!
I thought it was great to see someone doing and sharing to help others. The smart arsed brickies (who are probably apprentices anyway) shouldn't be making puerile comments!I was thinking I would have to use piers on a single skin. Would that only be needed if the walls were bigger?
To honest I'm not sure Rory I no if it's a garage you do as the shed is for my own use I wasn't too bothered about regs, as for the haters that don't bother me you will always get someone saying its crap or whatever mate.
What are those excellent orange things you use to get the mortar laid perfectly? And where can i buy them? I need some (will be building my shed once ive dug it out and got the base down) Thanks!
Ab Fab Plastering Thanks for that. Sorry to bother you, just a couple more questions. Did you pour about 16" concrete? Also what did you do for your floor, was it a wooden suspended floor or a poured concrete floor later on?
Ashley Amos I poured it ab 16 to 18 inches deep and I put a suspended timber floor as it was cheaper but I should of done it in concrete really and I should of done it at the Dpc level before building the walls hope this helps
Yep mate your right. Im doing a extension and re roof to my garage start of June. Got a brickie round today to qoute and he laughed when I said I was doing the founds and doing the wood and roof..
I've not personally used it mainly as I'm nvq 3 but one question I've often wondered is you lay a bed with it and place a block or brick . Tap and level . But I bet many don't check it's gauge . That's fairly important to . Fair play to the boys having a go looks tidy better than some I've seen . I personally use 100mm cuts in corners to allow 1 block cut into 2 half's. Can use commons also . So half block a 100mm cut or common and full block . Saves time and waste . But 3/4 bat works
