Congrats on the new chalk line. Ganna miss the old one. Nice new bag of shiny copper nails. They must cost a bit. Love how copper and lead complement each other. Job well done Steu.
I miss the old one too. It’s the best chalk like I’ve get had. Untill it wasn’t 🤦🏻♂️😂. It was very kind of the subscriber to buy me a new one. My truck needs changing too 😅😂
Very nice as always.The way your moving it looks like your back is much better (I really hope so for you). Is there any other tools you might like (ha ha) you never know what might happen. Best wishes.
Thank you. Yes it’s definitely improved. I still have to have the odd day off and I still need to be careful. It’s still thingy at times but at least I’m able to work the majority of the time. I still keep up with osteopath too. And also he has told me about magnesium gel. That stuff is a game changer. Yes I always need new tools lol. Thanks for watching.
The stone needs to be covered as they are letting water through. I see this all the time. They are porous and also water gets in through the joints. A damp proof course helps but in time this seems to fail too. Thank you and thanks for watching.
@slbleadworks it looks like Portland. I think the copings need to be deeper, weathered, and a drip. If you cover something that it is porous, it will stay damp when wet. If the wall is already damp then it's also difficult to dry out as its covered up. Stonemason of 20 years, so I'm not chatting crap 🤣. See this quite a lot now with people covering copings. The scaffold usually goes back up In a couple of years because it hasn't fixed the problem! Sorry to be negative, we are pulling away from traditional building methods, applying new applications to historic masonry isn't the best idea.
@@benllewellyn1887 yes the coping should have definitely been deeper to provide a drip. Any trapped moisture will be able to soak through and leak out like it’s been clearly doing all ready. I see this all the time in my 30 years of the trade. And a scaffold has never gone back up once the copings have been capped. Thanks for watching.
@slbleadworks if it's portland, then it's not the water soaking through its an actual leak. Unless it's a solid wall and someone has put a dpc under, It's completely different. If it's a solid wall, then it needs the right mortar. They didn't build these properties to have them covered in lead.

Why o why does the stone need to be covered? Waste of time putting the lead on.
Neat job though 👍
