I know you're leaving for something you wanna do badly but don't burn your bridges on the journey to the other side mate. You never know what the future brings. You've had a great mentor up till now. Not many young people get personal training like that. Good luck in the Marines 👍👍

Lovely brickwork again. Will say corbel would look better if you put headers on the end ( less than ¼ bonded) also how did the roofer get over the last course of your corbel as I bet its more than 50mm above the rafter end so above facia board? Other than that awesome 👍

Know you don't give 2 sh@'s about an old timey Texas Bricky of the mid 70's Izzy. But here goes... Fresh out of the U.S. Paratroopers; my desires were to work the summers learning to become a Texas brick a layer & a stone a mason during the summer months & earn a degree towards becoming a high paid Psychiatrist during the winter seasons. First day on a residential job as a helper I learned to make the formula of the mortar. That night it had rained so the formula was offset to the point of almost running off the mud boards of the foreman & his bricky. He then whispered to me - ''Hey Rock: think you could move that 55 gal. water barrel a little farther from the mixer for that next batch of the day?'' @ which I replied ''No sweat boss.'' And upon my return for the 2nd wheel barrow load: I took the time to steering wheel that now nearly full 400 lb. drum of water 2 rounds away from the mixer. Whereupon both he, the other mason, & both their helpers stood fast in awe as I shouted out to the foreman... ''How's That Boss?'' I'll never forget to this day the first time I saw his trowel bury 2''' deep into his scaffold floor board: as he then leaped from it & proclaimed for all to hear... ''Dammitt All Son! Your gonna make a bricklayer. You got a strong back & a weak mind!'' From that point on, he saw to it to get me up on his walk board to spread his mud before him & to hand him his brick: each time we hit the long money walls from the front garage, to the kitchen, to the back yard of the homes. I'll shut up now with the gestalt of my thesis of it all... ''There's no construction material touched & adjusted more, on any building than that of the lowly brick or stone. None!'' ~Just another one of those many one's of ''We The People'' Who's awaiting His Just⚖Return🪃- as The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. ~Psalm 118:22

If the corbels everywhere are flush? Why on earth would you change on a extension which is supposed to be an extension of what’s already been done? Poor.

Good point, but I personally think the corbels which stick out 15mm look much better than the flush ones. The customer preferred what I did. Which is a win win

You have got to get lift, any lift, instead of lifting bricks and blocks by ladder. Or You will be very old very quickly😢

Man you weep vents look ugly that way around! Turn it 180 and flip it upside-down. Read the side of the actual weep vent it has instructions on it. You can use them both ways around and the other way around is much cleaner look than what you did. I know because I made the same mistake and had to cut them out

Amazing job by the way! You smashed out in a day what takes me a week. Im not a bricky tho. The way around you did the vents are at an angle, I put them the wrong way pointing up so the rain would go in and the water in cavity wouldn't go out! But if you us the other side as your front then it has mm markers on the spout. Ones marked for brick and render etc so you know how far to have the spout poking out. Hey I have a massive problem ATM. I just rebuilt my gable end was bowed and cracked major. Had to pull fascia backing board forward 45mm at top peak and put noggins in order to be able to build up level! I'm redoing the fascia now and just realised my soffit on the left side is 1 brick higher than the right side! So my box ends will look odd 1 bigger than the other! I always wanted corbels but I only have scaffold up the gable end. Can you cut out and tooth in a corbel with just scaffold on the end? And how much should I pay a brickie to do that? Roughly? Grand job you thought me lots aswell.

P.s. just encase you didn't know the regs are for the dpc to overhang past the lintle each side by 150mm minimum and curled to the next nearest brick. You probably know that though. Lol to job
