Congratulations. You could create a playlist by teaching step by step from the beginning to the end of the build. I think many would like to learn how to build.
Listen guy I think your channel is wicked awesome. Im a mason in Maine waiting for a kidney transplant and Im stoked to get back to work. These videos are getting me all riled up!

@@adventureswithizack5889 U.S. Union laborer here, tended commercial brick and block for 15 years, would have been my pleasure to have tended for you. Spot on with all parts of your work but esp the finished product. As safety goes it's a personal thing when you control the site on small jobs. Just always keep safety in mind esp when working around other trades. That said, for the love of God, show Bucky you care... get him a wet saw, or figger a way to keep the blade wet and no more dry cutting. And dust masks only throw the dust around to be inhaled later and exposes other people Silicosis is a bitch and no joke and will haunt you in your later years. Just mild regular exposure to silica dust, be it cutting brick, cement block, mortar mix, sand... even the dust kicked up around the job site will cause irreparable damage to the lungs for which there is no cure. Retired now in my 60's I have occasional bouts of lung distress related to silicosis... even though part of my job during my time in the union was heavily concerned with dust control. Large granite stone veneer walls 30-40 feet high required hauling a gas demo saw with hose attachment up the scaffold along with a water hose. If the site Super spotted any dust cloud he would make the trek across the site to take names and write up whoever Inspite of these precautions there is an ever present shadow on my lungs, though oddly enough there's more in tbe left lobe, inspite of I being always mindful of the conditions around en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicosis For the dangers of silica dust on an industrial scale, look no further than the 1930 Hawk's Nest diversion tunnel in West Virginia; dry-drilled through 3 1/2 miles of high silica rock, granite or quartz, causing the known deaths of nearly 800 men but estimates are as high as 2,000 www.nps.gov/neri/planyourvisit/the-hawks-nest-tunnel-disaster-summersville-wv.htm ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lb7QIMRN3_U.html We were schooled in this as part of our training for safety certification Work safe and healthy, young men , so you can be whole and healthy in your age. Remember... as engaged as you are now in the front end of your life, everything you do is for the back end when you arrive. What you do now is making you who you'll become
Duy Tran thats why i quit being a chippie, just too many lazy cunts not giving a shit about their own work and peoples homes and me having to pick up after them... just too shit
Worked many years in the trade, wish I had a buck for Everytime the is it a block or a brick debate came up, great job good seeing the trade in good skilled hands.
Interesting seeing how you guys do things so much different but similar if that makes any sense, lovely work, watching your vids is making me consider coming on working holiday lol
Great video Zack you explained how to do that very well mate, to answer your question I'd call them blocks mate, brick in the uk are standard 65mm clay brick I guess our blocks are a little bigger 215mmx440mm keep up the good work bro!!
Ok cheers mate good to know! so we call them concrete bricks! they're 220 long 150 high.. And our "Concrete Blocks" are 390 long by 190 high. Cheers for sharing your knowledge!
Like it take the wall clean up from the deck in 1 go lol 😆 💪🏿😎 very tidy work. In Scotland normally keep 10mm down from soffit for movement or settlement.
A brick is building material used to construct walls and other structures in masonary construction, the term "Brick" referred to a unit made from Clay! But in modern terms denotes any rectangular unit laid in mortar
Lol !, Watching you clean that window reminds me! a few days ago one of our laborers was stacking bricks onto the scaffolding and a brick fell apart in his hand and fell right on that window ! 1000$ dollar set back 😅 Great video btw man keep it !
Nice work . In ireland the brick are 65 mm High x 215 mm Long x 100mm wide . concrete blocks are 215 mm H x 440 mm L x 100mm W . We also have the Cavity blocks that you used in the foundation video ,they are 215 mm H .215 mm W and 440 L you can also get them 140 mm wide ( when ordering we just ask for 6 or 8 inch cavity’s and for the 100mm wide ones we ask for 4 inch solids . I would call the units your laying in this video blocks rather than brick . Concrete rather than clay face brick were very popular here in the 60 s and 70s cheap as chips to produce for the manufactures . What’s the story with Bucky , only for you told us he was an apprentice I would never have guessed it ,looks to me like he spends his day working as a labourer . I think you said he was a year in to his time .
Nice video mate! I’ve been bricklaying about 10 years now I’m from the U.K. and heading over to Christchurch in January. What part of nz are you in? And also what do the clay bricks you have over there gauge at? Bricks we use are alot smaller and gauge at 75mm per course with a mortar bed. And blocks 225mm with a mortar bed. Cheers mate 👍
Only found your channel yesterday but already subbed, keep up the top work fella. And to your question I would say the people referring to them as blocks are probably British, over here it would be a block ✌️
Cheers! yes! we do have a couple clay brick houses coming. One really big 2 story house with lintels over all the windows and lots of big gables! stay tuned :)
i am from lithuania,bro i really thinking about to fininsh school and like work so i can earn cash cause im thinking about my future so i dont know much i saw much of videos,and yeah i love bricklaying
Fuck yea... you better finish school. A smart bricky is a good bricky and to move up there is bricky schooling out there you could use. You're going to be working for the rest tst of your life. Don't rush these last 2 years your youth
A jones yea that’s how I normally would do it but the other guy on the wall was slow and his profile was in the way at the start to build the corner up first
In the UK and Ireland anything made of concrete is a "Concrete Block". Concrete Blocks come in different sizes and shapes but they are still Concrete Blocks. Bricks are exclusively made of clay.
15 years union mason tender here... When we here in the Northeast U.S. lay 4" finished face block as a veneer, the old timers call them tile, like the original clay tile used for walls
