Man love this video. Wish there were more like it on RUclips. Miss the music that used to be on it. It is relaxing watching this guy. We lay over the line but I love the way he lays. I’m sitting on vacation watching him lay 12s like poetry and just chillin. Mad respect. Smooth brother smooth!
Come from generations of masons. I must say, you paint portraits with your trowel. Amazingly clean and precise. The one handing 12s is crazy as well. But strength is strength the trowel skill is most impressive. Awesome display of skills.
that's years and years of technique right there. not a wasted movement. It took me a long time before I could wrap all of the Technique's I learned over the years into one single 8-hour day. cool video
@@SolidworksUnlimited i've only ever spread mud with the back of my trowel in tight spaces or over head. I might have to give it a try. Seems to be quick for you, since you don't have tonturn your arm
The main reason I started doing it was because of tight wrists and it made them sore to twist so much, turned out OK after some practice now it's just how it flows naturally.
As a former brick layer myself, great job sir, well done, nice and clean just the way I like it done myself. Kinda miss it now, watching this video, good old times
This is by far the best mason I’ve seen with these specific blocks. Very impressive. Light weight block, tight beds and heads but still very impressive
This is the best block laying video on the Internet. This is poetry in motion!!! Please put the music back!! Amazing amazing amazing!!! Great job sir!!!💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍
Wow, thank you, I'll see what I can do on the music, probably won't be able to do the same song as the original, but I might be able to find something that's acceptable. 👍👍
Nice to see a real blocklayer instead of the usual hacks on a you tube video...Very impressed with this dudes skill...One handing 12 inch block all day is bad ass.Not to mention the mortar is perfect for blocklaying...IMHO.
Nice Spreading perfect Handling the block efficiency Setting the block on the bed joint craftsmanship Picking the edges mortar you sit on the head joint He ended right on the control joint I’ll give him an A plus
Have seen this video a few times and it doesn't get old watching a true mason with serious skills lay down some block with ease--especially a 12'' cmu at about 50+ lbs ea
i wAtched this video atleast 20 times very impressive laying12's with one hand lol nice work man.... they do 2 guys to 8 inch block this guy killing it with one hand one twelves.... prob light weigh block but still
The only potential waste I see (as somebody with zero block laying experience) is applying mortar to the block while holding it in the air. It seems to be a waste of strength/energy. Not that this dude needs my input.
Se ve fácil de hacer pero no es así ..se necesita tener mucha práctica cómo este maestro de la cuchara 👍👍👍👍exelente video suban más para enseñarnos a trabajar..
Yo fui albañil ase un rato y asi todo ese trabajo es una chinga y no puedes descansar x es x horas sabia aser trbajo comercial y recidencial el comercial es en la ciudad y comercial es en condominios y en fundaciones de casa y el comercial es aser restauantes de comida rapida y tiendas como la walmart yo trabaje asiendo un homedipo
He makes it look easy. I had never laid 12s or neither carried them to the stack and i have to say this guy is strong as hell I'm a big dude i started last week building two walls for a school and i have to use both hands right now im sore as hell.
I'm curious as to why no mortar in the middle section of the brick though? I'm not questioning this guy's skill, its obvious he's a pro! Just trying to learn why he isn't battering up the short side of the brick (along its face, and also top and bottom)? You obviously save a lot of mortar, but wouldn't it be stronger to cover the entire surface of the two bricks touching side by side?
I've done stucco masonry for over 20 years and I dable in learning block. I remember seeing your video years ago and I keep coming back to it to see your poetry in motion. You were made for this trade brother. Is that wrist trowel action to get the mud to stick on first swipe or is it a rich mix mud? I have to know the secret to that please.
It's both, but if you don't have good mortar in the trade you still have to be able to make it stick to be effective and fast. Type S mortar is a lot better than type N maybe that's part of your trouble getting it to stick.
@@SolidworksUnlimited Yes sir, In stucco plastering we tell the mixer to mix rich for ceiling work. And a type S is similar if not the same as our standard 3-1 stucco mix. I'll get it with practice I'm sure. Thank you sir
Muy buen blokero... Muy limpio.... Y muy ahorrativo... Solo quiero comentar ....que muchos trabajan a su estilo....unos mas rapidos que otros....unos mas limpios que otros.... Tambien quiero comentar que existen muchos factores.....como el clima y el tipo de material que se utiliza.... Y esto lo digo por el tipo de mortar que utiliza ...pareciera que no pero tiene mucho que ver
It's not really necessary, but it's fine to put it there, some say it's better with some say it's better without so the grout can flow in there, but not required either way by the building codes.
Those are real life regular bonified 12 inch block and if you don't like it, eat some mortar and lay a few yourself, I find the smoother sand works better 😀😉

Thanks man, I appreciate that!
this guy is unreal....the way he handles that trowel is amazing. well done
37 years stacking rocks & blocks never seen better than this guy smooth as butter and strong as an Ox one handing 12s!!!
Dude, right? I thought the same thing.
Thanks guys appreciate that.
that's years and years of technique right there. not a wasted movement. It took me a long time before I could wrap all of the Technique's I learned over the years into one single 8-hour day. cool video
Thanks man
Used to watch this as an apprentice and Copy the way how clean and smooth this work is . Awesome
Thanks man hope it helped you out
One handing 12's... Respect!
Fucking so strong
He's either got forearms like Popeye or they make really light block in Colorado! Regardless, smooth technique, clean work.
Lol

He’s super smooth and clean. I can’t lift those 12” block with one hand anymore, I’m jealous.
Kudos to that mason and hod carrier. Plenty of block, mortar, rebar etc. I can see years of experience in the motion of that trowel. Much respect.
Not quite sure how many times I have watched this.... pure skill
As a former brick layer myself, great job sir, well done, nice and clean just the way I like it done myself. Kinda miss it now, watching this video, good old times

This guy knows how to lay block Skill right there.
Everytime I go from restoration to new construction companies, I come and watch your video, so relaxing 😌
Awesome! Thank you! I'm Super glad you enjoy it.
Effortless, clean, tidy, quick. Awesome
Very clean and so consistent. Amazing job.
Very impressive, I’m a financial person but I’m in awe of people with these skills.
i know Im kinda off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch newly released tv shows online?
This guy is strong! He must have large wrist big hands and massives forearms !💪
Nice to see a real blocklayer instead of the usual hacks on a you tube video...Very impressed with this dudes skill...One handing 12 inch block all day is bad ass.Not to mention the mortar is perfect for blocklaying...IMHO.
Yea... The mortar is very important
c dawg 10 inch block man
Nice
Spreading perfect
Handling the block efficiency
Setting the block on the bed joint craftsmanship
Picking the edges mortar you sit on the head joint
He ended right on the control joint
I’ll give him an A plus
That’s the best I’ve seen in years.
One of my favourite videos on RUclips. Respect
Well thank you

One handing 12s like a beast! You need a job come work for me
OK lol
ummm its not that hard, they are utralites i can tell by the sound of his trowel tapping them.
Best I have ever seen. Well Done!
You make it look so easy!
He is doing a great job, congrats!!!!
Lightweight block is a beautiful thing.😉😊
The best I've ever seen.
Never seen anyone in Hawaii carry 12" block like that. And I been with some damn good setters......
I have to know how you are getting that head joint mud to stick with one swipe? Rich mud mix? Very impressive skills
Start at the hilt of the trowel as you go up the block twist the trowel at the top of the block sealing it to the block
昔見てずっと探してた動画だ！
やっと見つけた！

@@ajtweb Could be a bit more technique to it than we realize?

No soy albañil pero me gusta como trabaja de limpio el amigo y no desperdicia la mescla 👍👌
This guy is a beast!!
Lol
Those blocks look very light or this guy is secretly the hulk. Quality work mate, cheers from Canada.
Great work.
This guy makes it look easy. True craftsman right there.
Are they 12 inch blocks that weigh in around 55 lb or are they lighter blocks made from light weight aggregate like expanded clay .

Making that 52lbs look easy! :)
Laying 12s for 7 days makes one weak 😃
Damn if he doesn't make it look easy-clean as a Safeway chicken!
Nice technique
Agreed. I would love a couple of pointers
I've finally uploaded some more videos, going to be doing it weekly now.

Superb flow.
Top class work and speed 👍👍
Good work , Sir
Thanks man
Excelente manejó de la cuchara.
Gracious. :D
Construção cada vez mais moderna
Hi ! How many kilos or lb this block? Thank you in advance for your reply!!
It's about 38 lbs
Nice style of laying .....
Felicitaciones, que prolijidad
Love watching skilled workers. Was waiting for the camera person to walk off the end of the scaffold. Jk. Nice job.
Hey my brother saw that comment lol
Muy buen blokero...
Muy limpio....
Y muy ahorrativo...

Tambien quiero comentar que existen muchos factores.....como el clima y el tipo de material que se utiliza....
Y esto lo digo por el tipo de mortar que utiliza ...pareciera que no pero tiene mucho que ver
I'm a beginner.....why is mortar mix only applied to the outside edges but not the center..?
It's not really necessary, but it's fine to put it there, some say it's better with some say it's better without so the grout can flow in there, but not required either way by the building codes.
Nice Job!!
Thanks
Good work👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Poetry right folks! I also heard those aren't lightweight 12" either. So this man could tear your arm off!
Nope no tearing arms lol
He laid 10 block in 5 minutes. At that rate it's 960 in an 8 hour day LOL
I'd like about 10 dollars a block at that rate lol
Makes it look so easy I'm averaging 1 block ever 11 minutes
Good job
Man this guy has some big 💪💪💪👍
Lol
Wow nice job
No aga caso alos comentarios negativos. Ust es un profesional con la cuchara y el Block .No es cantidad es calidad y técnica
thats 12 inch block this guy is laying them with one had wow hes got some serious strength in that arm
These blocks are designed to lay like this but he has it down to a fine art
Those aren't regular 12's?
Those are real life regular bonified 12 inch block and if you don't like it, eat some mortar and lay a few yourself, I find the smoother sand works better 😀😉
@@cheshstyles all good lol, thanks for watching 👍
Some upside down bond beams in there, grouting solid I guess.
sube mas videos, con este aestro, que nos de un tutorial, tips, buenas practicas, para los que queremos enseñarnos, gracias.
Good mechanic
Love this
Thank you! glad you enjoyed it.
Do you need a line for laying blocks? Like you do when laying bricks? Ive only been a labourer for a couple months now so just wondering
Yes same deal but bigger
That guy is a G
Sencillamente es un maestro ...
