How to stand Blake's Profiles up the easy way 

👍

Thanks Steve 👍

Thanks 👍

Yea I meant to show how to do that by running the level along the face of the wall but forgot 😁👍

Good idea 👍

I find the Blake's better though I have both, the bonus of Blake's is being able to joint behind them and not needing all the top clamps etc if you use the stabalisers properly. 👍

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 I'll get some👍👌

Thanks Kurt 👍

I forgot but have mentioned it in the comments and my next video 👍

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 👍🏼nice one look forward to seeing more

No favouritism here as I think Blakes are the best on the market and have stood the test of time untill now nothing better but I have to he honest Richards are better.

As far as I can make out , 3 other companies besides Blake’s make the Blake’s type profiles , I think they might be a bit concerned about losing out when the fitzbrick profiles come on the market . The fitzbrick profiles look like Blake’s on steroids . I was thinking about getting the Blake’s type that Faithfull tools sell . But I’m going to wait until the fitzbrick ones come on the market now .

@@brickbybric A lot of people commented saying Richards look complicated, they look it but they really aren't, these same dense brains cant even put a Blakes up lol.Wait and i wil do a full honest revue on them.Richard has a lot of respect for Blakes and wont do anything to compromise them but fair competition is unavoidable 👍

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 i don’t think either one of them look complicated to set up .but if I had to pick one richards look the least complicated to set up .

@@brickbybric it is as it squares itself up👍

Yea they look good will give them a go.

No i forgot, but mentioned it in the comments, there is another vid somewhere where i show it. New profiles coming out soon which i will be demonstrating which are self squaring👍

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 keep going buddy, love what you stand for. No ego just trying to help and for the up and coming brickies is perfect, I try to help myself, seems to be a lot of egos but I really don’t know why with some of them 😂

@@RosierConstruction Thanks mate, I think some just like the sound of there own voice, I just do it as I enjoy doing sometimes funny and informative vids certainly not for the money. To many of the skills are just being lost but to be honest most of the young ones aren't interested. If you head a vid " pick and dip and profiles" you will get a lot more views than " how to set out a gauged arch" .Thanks for watching and good luck with your channel 👍👍

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 yeah I am traditionalist and unfortunately don’t seem to get as much of the skilled stuff as I’d like but got a few decent ones coming up hopefully, got a dovecot to build which I’m really looking forward to doing. I find these fellas on here say this and that but don’t know there arse from there elbow of truth be known 😂

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 and thank you

Yes I forgot to explain that in vid but did mention it in the comments if I remember correctly. I can set them up by eye before I tap the clamp in and they are generally spot on square 👍

Nice vids - keep going. Had a look at brickie bits as well. Haven’t watched all your vids yet so not sure if they’ve passed a discount code to you ?

More you use them the easier it gets, you slightly offset the profile when you put the first clamp on, the wedge then stops that from falling out and when you bang the second clamp in it pulls it square.

Every bricklayer has their preferances, for me Blake's but I use posts as well depending on the situation 👍

don't know what it's called just comes with the the kit, have a look on Blakes profiles Website or Ebay

Hard 👍

👍

Just remember to make sure the profile is square to the wall, i forgot to say that👍

N.London/ East Herts

Really not sure whats happening, ive never had that problem and never adjusted the top screw, what area be are you in ?

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 in the southwest, it really is bizarre, it happened a few times with the last set, hence why we got new ones, sometimes it will run through lovely but the last couple times it doesn’t run through right and we’ve had to stick a packer in behind the brick and the setting screw to bring the line out, to avoid tipping the brick back

@@Bricky1996 are you checking that the profile is 100% square by ranging it in with a level, i forgot to show that on the vid.

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 Yeah I always check for square, with the level, you got any tips on making sure it’s 100% square tho? Maybe I need to invest in a magnetic level

@@Bricky1996 I dont know, have a look at another of my vids from a few weeks back,"Brickwork extension Blakes profile set up transferring gauge"

Think they were invented 1969.

We use 40 mil profiles, much better less bulky and less stuff in your way

@@deanskillings7156 I've got 40s as well use them on internals

Factor 50 slapped on it every day 👍

Yes mate I've seen it.

No, lol

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 you could be his lookalike lol ...hurry up with those frenchys aswell 😜

For my sins.

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 good lad, me 2.....🤣

@@benllewellyn1887 👍👍

Yea I know, stage fright it's in the comments 👍

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 i liked the wedge idea,hadn't seen that.

East Herts mate, shocking aren't they.

@@bricklayersworldwithandy6277 we cant use them top of wall we have to wait for them to get better ones in. Im doing a nice rag stone plot at the moment

@@kierenboimufc5940 You could be waiting some time the way things are going. 👍
