    Great job and nice video work. Block stacking makes sense. Wonder if others don't do cos of site safety (kids breaking in ) on more open sites. For the profile on the wall for the internals, why not fix a batten to the wall with bunch of frame screws, with some old say M10 nuts as spacers, then thread the line through the gap. That said you seemed to do just fine without it LOL. Look forward to next one.

      The newton value of a block is relating to its strength under compression ! Obviously this has nothing to do with the render. The reason 7N blocks are good for rendering is they provide a good key and are not to thirsty. The only reason fibrelite blocks are not used more for the outer skin of a rendered building is they are more expensive than 7N lightweights.
