    Aside from being an awesome bricklayer, I must congratulate on your filming and editing skills. I don't know much about that art, but I suspect there's probably a million ways this video could have been boring as fuck but it isn't. The effort pays and your videos are very relaxing and enjoyable to watch.

    Greetings from Maryland, USA. Excellent work. My father was a very skilled brick layer also. I'm an old man now, but when I reflect back I am amazed at some of the brick work I saw him do. It's a rare skill anymore.

      That is a shame. I think there is still a lot of bricklaying in the UK, or as far as I am aware. People here like bricks. They really age well too.

    Thanks - such a great video. I’ve been building a block work outbuilding having never done it before, and have just added a 900 mm round opening which will have a window inside. Watched your video 10 times to figure out how to make the circle - never laid a brick in my life! Just been out to check it this morning and it’s all in one piece - thanks for the clear and mercifully brief instructions. Keep up,the good work.

    Great craftsmanship! Best to size within brick coursing, see bottom aligned in coursing vs top not aligned with coursing. Additionally, bottom mortar joint better to have been staggered with brick coursing and horizontal mortar joint to have been aligned with brick coursing. Always size and coordinate to align with brick coursing.

    Great video as always mate. Love that you cut all the halves around the circle instead of having big joints. Here in the US some bricklayers won’t take the time to cut them and they look like shit. If it’s a big enough circle you might be able to get away with it but still looks bad

    I cut all my brick with a wet saw, dry each off and use the first one as a template, and make them all at once. now I don't know what's left in my storage I think I need a plug for my wet saw, but I'll grab a 16 inch one to.depending on how many cuts I have to make, if I'm doing a patio ill cut as needed with the 16 inch,i always score a little deep..bring the saw to the rear and sink it,

    • @RodianBuilds
      @RodianBuilds  4 года назад +2

      Pretty much yes. You wouldnt have to be too detailed when doing it out of blocks as it would be plastered over. Use cavity closers to fill the cavity and you're good to go 😁👍🏻🧱

      @@RodianBuilds That's great news.
      See if you can have a go at each of the trades, and what you can teach us. Interested to see which walls you are dry lining inside. Vancouver carpenter is my fav RUclips chan for that. Also on plumbing if you are going plastic or trad copper and what kind of fittings you prefer. I'm not keen on plumbing behind fine plastered walls, but you would have to specifically design the house in a certain way to avoid that.

    Great video! I love the end result! I wish you didn't skip the most interesting part, how you cut (shaped) the bricks to fit in the circle. I didn't catch what you called it in the video!
    How come your mortar (cement) has a cream color and not the usual grey? It looks nice in my opinion. What type of mortar and/or mix did you use to achieve this?

    @terryneason7400 4 года назад

    G/day Rodian,That looks good mate.When you mentioned the brick cutting and asked is there a better way,I thought I'd let you know how we do it here in Australia.We have used bricksaws for a long time here.I started in the game in 1968 and probably bought my first bricksaw in or around 76.The became a very popular machine for the hire companies for ten years or so, and then almost all of the sub-contractors started to purchase their own.This coincided with the advent of dry pressed bricks been largely replaced with wire cut ones, (plenty of dry pressed still available,but much dearer) with lots of perforations through them.They are often very brittle and fracture easily,so a bricksaw is, as I said,mandatory these days As someone else mentioned the BT engineering models are very popular and although costing quiet a bit (around $2000A)they will last for a lot of years and the parts that
    commonly have the most wear are readily available.I think BT have started to export their extensive range of tools and saws over your way recently.I think you'd find the saws to be a massive time saver and do a great job but,as I mentioned not a cheap tool.All the best Rodian. Regards Terry www.btengpl.com.au/

    • @RodianBuilds
      @RodianBuilds  4 года назад +1

      Thanks for taking the time to comment. I have seen a few people mention the BT saw. Wow £2k, that's a big outlay🤔Maybe I could find a second hand one for cheaper. I remember using one in college and they made awkward cuts so much easier. I'll look into it. Thanks again buddy 😁🤙🏼🧱
