Another job well done most professional job showing how a dying trade is done lead Woking. Never let a large job get better of you as you can only do a days work at a time, it’s hard. Excellent vids . 👍🏽
You know, I followed your profile on instagram where you showed your muscle progress and it makes sense why you're a bodybuilder because of all the construction work at least that's what I think, either way I admire that you're a bodybuilder well done😉
Thank you. Yes I don’t understand it. I think your better off capping the stones rather than putting them in top. I suppose at least it’s not as easy to steal
Ever thought about starting a training centre I worked for a company in Scotland b4 covid as a construction trainer We worked with kids that had a rough upbringing through the local council's I enjoyed it
Excellent Video of your work ....Warning Warning OSB ..OSB ..OSB....Remember putting up Timber Frames we laid chipboard floor so we could work on that floor the roof was not on and it pissed down with rain for 6 weeks we had to bore holes in the floor to let the water through as there was in pools of water all over on the floor. this was 30 year ago or so it was V1313 waterproof chipboard . Did not believe the floor was okay after 6 weeks of rain so we cut patches of the floor sent them away for testing and low and behold the floor passed the inspection. Now OSB Hymm from what I can gather it does not do well in the wet so it seems strange to put all that lead work stone capping on to what seems a possible problem in the future although the OSB is protected ..Unless someone tells me different of course. Has OSB been tested recommended by Architect /Design for this type of application does seem strange to me I could be wrong of course.....Interesting well done Stuart excellent lead work.
Thank you. It’s not ideal to use osb in lead work applications. But yes I suppose you could argue that it’s totally protected. There is a grade A building paper underneath and of course then the lead capping creating a watertight seal. The builder didn’t use this on the dormers etc. just on the capping and gutters
@@slbleadworksunfortunately they are necessary as water will run off the lead and down the side of the wall. Coping stones have a 50mm overhand each side and a drip channel to prevent this
Loving the work Stu … Top notch quality as per usual mate… Also … loving the ‘guns’ ! Let it be said that if u work with lead all day u never have to set foot in a gym.! 😂👍 (Unless u do of corse ..!) Always a pleasure to watch … ( the work of corse .. not so much the ‘guns’..!) Cheers Stu … Much love Chris..👍
@@slbleadworks well your looking good bro..…. That’s probably competition level physique u got there.. Takes a lot of dedication especially on a nutrition level… Nuff respect my friend …👍🙏
@@slbleadworks thank you sir. Working on a project where architect wants bauder waterproofing underneath with lead finish on parapet. Hopefully we will get it right
Great work as usual mate. What do you think of OSB as a substrate for leadwork? OSB is ok and it was onsite and to hand here as a required substrate for the liquid roof membrane but I hate seeing it used under lead as your leadwork will surely out live the OSB by many many decades.
Thank you. I’m not a fan of OSB for leadwork and this shouldn’t be used. But like you say it was here to hand so it’s what the builder gave me to work with unfortunately.
To be fair though i am constantly suprised how long osb lasts. I had a hole in my trailer and needed to pick up some gravel so i threw a sheet of osb over the hole to get this job done and that sheet was i the trailer for 5 years or more outside getting rained and snowed on. When i finally got round to reboarding the trailer i thought the osb would just break up easy and id burn it. I had to cut it with a circular saw to burn it. That board was still in great shape 😅
I'm trying to get me "Stu from slb leadwork" arms 💪💪 I suppose thats the frame you need for the job, did you get that all done in one day? Also them copings stones are shite be stained and saturated in a few years should have had you cap them instead.
Lol for that you need the Stu from lead work gym programme 😂. No it took me 2.5 days. And I totally agree that it would have been better to cap the stones instead.
Love the trick using the metal square to dress down the welt
It works really well doesn’t it.
Thanks for watching.
I enjoy your content , craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Thank you so much. Thanks for watching the vids.

Another job well done most professional job showing how a dying trade is done lead Woking.
Never let a large job get better of you as you can only do a days work at a time, it’s hard. Excellent vids .
👍🏽
Thank you so much I’m glad your enjoying the vids.
A nice job Stuart. Great to watch lead worker now than doing it from years ago
Thank you. I’ve been doing so much capping lately. I’m looking forward to getting stuck into something different now.
U been working out boy!! Looking good fella. Lead work speaks for itself. Respect !
I used too. But now I haven’t really worked out since last November because of injuries.
And thank you and thanks for watching.
Another great bit of work, really enjoy you showering the process on how you do it rather than just skipping over it great work 👍
Thank you I’m trying to show as much as I can wherever possible.
You know, I followed your profile on instagram where you showed your muscle progress and it makes sense why you're a bodybuilder because of all the construction work at least that's what I think, either way I admire that you're a bodybuilder well done😉
Thank you. I wouldn’t say I’m a bodybuilder I just enjoy working out.
Nice to see how the lead goes under the capping stones 👍
Thank you
Nice work always a shame put all the work in and it gets hidden away as always a pleasure to watch and again a pro lesson
Thank you.
Yes I don’t understand it. I think your better off capping the stones rather than putting them in top. I suppose at least it’s not as easy to steal
Quality Work Stu. NO ONE COMES CLOSE😊
Thank you.
Awesome , thanks for showing the full process.
💪🏼 looking good pal
Thank you. I’ve been trying to show more of the work being done whenever I can
All that work and they just cover it up, the b*stards. Great video.
Lol thank you. Omg there’s stone everywhere on this job. Must of cost a fortune.
Great watching you work! Thanks for taking the time out of working to make the vid… keep up the good work.
Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoyed the vid.
Great detail. Lovely job. Well done. 👍
Thank you
Thank God you've now got a bench
Omg yes. So much easier than working on the floor 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️😂
I would like to see more of how you set out for welts 👍
Ok thank you. I’ll see what I can do.
Ever thought about starting a training centre
I worked for a company in Scotland b4 covid as a construction trainer
We worked with kids that had a rough upbringing through the local council's
I enjoyed it
I do agree, what a cracking job just to cover up ! In that case they could have just used felt !
Yes such a shame it’s all covered
Great video and top work 👏
Thank you I’m glad you liked the vid.
Lovely work as usual sid. You also been smashing the gym lad💪
Thank you. And yes I’m 4 days a week lol.
@@slbleadworks keep it up mate,the gains are showing💪👌
Hi Stuart. Great to see more of the process! Great work as always!
Thank you I’m trying to do this more and more.
Thanks for watching the vid.
Great work but would be great to see you working not just ( generally) finished product. Thank
Thank you. I try and show as much as I can whilst trying not to make the video too long.

How long did this job take you in total?
Looks like a lovely job Stu 👍
Thank you I can’t remember to be honest as it was such a long time ago. But yes it was a really nice job todo.
Thanks for watching.
Shame to cover it with nasty coping stones Stu, but good to see you working your magic 👍
Thank you.
Yes they could of kept them off and saved a few quid.

Loving the work Stu …
Top notch quality as per usual mate…
Also … loving the ‘guns’ !
Let it be said that if u work with lead all day u never have to set foot in a gym.!

(Unless u do of corse ..!)
Always a pleasure to watch …

Thank you Chris.
Yes I’m in the gym 4 days a week lol. I love it. I’m just glad someone has noticed I actually work out lol 😳😂
@@slbleadworks well your looking good bro..…. That’s probably competition level physique u got there..
Takes a lot of dedication especially on a nutrition level…
Nuff respect my friend …👍🙏
Amazing mate
Thank you
Nice work BTW
Thank you
thanks for such a nice video. a silly question, what is that paper doing under lead?
It protects the under side of the lead from alkalis in concrete stone and screed.
And also reduces corrosive attack when laying onto plywood and oak.
@@slbleadworks thank you sir. Working on a project where architect wants bauder waterproofing underneath with lead finish on parapet. Hopefully we will get it right

I’m not a fan of OSB for leadwork and this shouldn’t be used. But like you say it was here to hand so it’s what the builder gave me to work with unfortunately.
I agree. The builder should be using treated lumber on anything the comes in contact with concrete or masonry.
To be fair though i am constantly suprised how long osb lasts. I had a hole in my trailer and needed to pick up some gravel so i threw a sheet of osb over the hole to get this job done and that sheet was i the trailer for 5 years or more outside getting rained and snowed on.

Nice work as always great job
I take it lead is a dpm and covered did it need to be welted
Thank you.
Yes there is coping stones now covering all of this capping.
Also yes the joints needed to be welted as a flat lap will leak.

How long do it take you to do all of that stu?
This took me 2 and a half days
What is the black crust on your lead dresser ?
It’s probably patination oil
