This Posting is one of your best. I picked up a lot from it. (Uphill, winding)
Glad it helped mate!
Beautiful to see ancient skills still being practised in the modern world. Great job 👍🏻
Something incredibly timeless and satisfying watching this. In this mad hectic modern world it’s all nonsense really and just old crafts in nature is what the soil needs. Really informative, I’m a landscaper normally patios and fencing and have just started a small dry stone wall repair on a job so much appreciated!
No problem mate, glad you liked it.
It’s definitely a satisfying job and very peaceful at times
Way to mend the gap, Tomlinson!
🤣⚒👌

Thank you
Really good video man, Currently trying to repair my dry stone dyke after a rough gale and i found this incredibly helpful. You've got a great way of explaining what you're doing. 10/10
Thanks! Glad it helped you out 😊
Beautiful work! Thanks for the video
Spot on. Did some walling today with DSWA, new in to this. Then searched then this popped up. Great walling there, in my own opinion. Better then mine today. Those Stones looked good to wall with...natural craftsman. If you need a hand, let me know :)
Thanks mate I’ll keep it in mind
Really helpful to a new waller like me. Learning a lot!
Clad it helped
Greetings from Colombia! Nice work!

Interesting stuff. I live in N Italy, and in the Alps there is a lot of stone construction. I watched a video about fixing walls and the builder said to use smaller stones at lower points as the weight of larger stones above will hold them in place. I tend to think that those stones are thinner, more flat and squared off than these, so one has to work with local knowledge. One benefit of gentrification is that people with a ton of money are coming in and restoring the old buildings and walls. It is shocking to see the level of masonry coming from subsistence farmers from 1-400 years ago!
I love this job. You are the best man
Thanks mate, appreciate it! ⚒
Right on head of nail! I’ve just started repair of my wall. Bit cheating with concrete on foundation.
It’s not cheating if your happy with it 😊👌⚒
That's wonderful job man.
Thank you! ⚒
Good looking wall, I’m a dry stone Waller my self
Cheers mate! God you like it! ⚒
Incredible!
Thanks for watching
That was very satisfying to watch come together

Good job as always
Thanks ⚒
Brilliant wall an brilliant video . In Scotland we call the dry stane dykes . Glad to see someone doing this that actually knows what there talking about. I enjoyed your video pal . Take a look at one of my dykes I built if you like , it’s on my channel devito501. Thanks for sharing your vid an I’ll certainly subscribe to your channel. Regards Danny.
Thanks mate! I’ll definitely take a look! 👌⚒
Nice job from french dry stone maker
Thanks 👍
Awesome job well done , I learnt a lot thanks for sharing your master stone walking skills. If your stones are a lot rounder stones do split them or just face them off a little. Cheers love the videos, thanks 🙏 jim
You can split stones but it’s a lot of work so it really depends on the finish you want.
You can walk round stone you just need to during the string line to the front of the stone and let the stone sit on its widest point.
It will look like the stones can rock forward but once there all locked in then it will be fine 😊
@@DryStoneTom thanks so much Tom your a champion all the best Jim👍🙏so much enjoy watching your videos, you make it look easy .
Kolay gelsin buralarda taşlar yuvarlak yapılı. Buna göre videolar arıyorum ama bulamıyorum. Yuvarlak taşları düz hale getirmek çok zor.
Good video,Ally
Thank you
Man, this shit is so beautiful. The facet of this being pretty much permanent elevates the art to a crazy degree. Would you take a free apprentice for a month a year for the foreseeable future and then for a few times a year after about a decade?
Unfortunately I’m moving or is have been happy too
Cracking vid Tom. I'm definitely going to give your method a go on my next big gap. How do you know your batter is the same both sides without using a frame? Is it just experience that teaches you that?
Be great to have some feedback once you give it a go! Tbh I just eyeball it mate. Aslong as it’s in the ballpark it will be fine with this sort of wall. Especially with that amount of through stones in 😃⚒
@@DryStoneTom
I certainly will Tom. Thanks for the videos and the information, it'll help no end.
By "eye"...
Раствор нужен
Great! Do you think the little culvert caused the collapse of the old wall? It might have eroded the supporting soil underneath the wall.
I don’t think so I’m this case, from what I can remember the guys who fitted the new telegraph pole knocked it and disturbed the land
Hello Tom, looks the business. I’m quoting a job that looks very similar to that in size, just wondering how long that took you to do in total?
2.75 days but that was including bringing new stone up so maybe 2.5 days work
I have a 180 foot dry stone wall , in the extreme dry weather 2 large sections fell down 2 days apart , the wall is built on bank ( not my side) it’s a retaining wall to my property. Around another 3 sections look like they are also ready to fall. I’m convinced it’s down to ground subsidence due to the extreme dry weather we had for weeks. Could this be possible and how can I prove it ? Any advice would be most helpful. I’m guessing the wall has been there over 100 years , The house was built new build in 2004.
Drop me an email with some pictures and I’ll see if I can help you out.

Thanks ever so much I will do exactly that , I will take photographs in day light and send them to you, much appreciated Michael.
@@michaelwilson3844 no problem buddy! Maybe do I little video too explaining it.
Tom
@@DryStoneTom great idea 👍🏻
@@michaelwilson3844 Hey guys, this sounds very similar to an issue I have; did you do a video @Dry Stone Tom ?
How old was this before you fixed it?
Dunno exactly it would have been over 100 years for sure

Awesome!
How do you price your work?
It varies mate
Great vid,!
But too many of zips, 🤔✌️
No there isn’t, that wall is built to last and zip joints happen when you field wall. Farmers don’t want changing for perfection
@@DryStoneTomum no !
Please tell me one reason why??
