Dressing bricks
« on: 31 January 2014, 13:00:46 »

Always the case - one brick splits off mortar clean in 2 blows with lump and chisel and next one clings like when STEMO has a problem with his bed linen. I hate inconsistency.

Going to block in one door having had French windows installed elsewhere. Rain has held off so far.

I am a grandad again as of yesterday - 8lb grand daughter. All doing well. Will visit again later when rain starts.

You can usually get a clean break in a brick with a good whack to a sharp bolster, but it's all it the wrist action.
Congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter, start saving up.
