”Don’t worry, just go for it my man.“ Put that on a sign. Performance pressure just gets in the way, and how can you learn properly when it’s all reduced to funless robot chores. The joy is in the skill, and getting it right, and then being able to actually build something, that’s empowerment.

Good tutorial bud. May help someone decide to give it a try. DYIs should eat it up!! Good job

He’s a quick learner and he has a lot of potential to make serious money being a bricky and I believe in the lad, remember when I started laying 4 months ago and now I’m flying it, he will be flying in 3-4 months. All the best to the lad

He’s a natural !!

Good work big G everyone has to start somewhere pay no attention to the negative comments,,👍

This is helpful

Top man

I was exactly this when I started 10 years ago...overthinking the things which then became second nature...I'm sure been on camera doesn't help either...but he will get there

Are you using sharp sand ??

That tapping would drive me mad. What did you build manholes

Masons are the heart and soul of building. My teacher always told me when striking your joints " you get head in bed".🤣

The amount of anxiety emitting from the young lad is crazy

Nice teachin Bud, get the trainee to look up Rob Songer's channel, he's got some excellent tutorials for beginners to learn from

Hi bud how do u stop bricks from tilting, or do you have any tips that might help please because when I upright its badly twisted making uprights hard

Why do you use your hand to push mortar on the trowel?

Are you a norfolk man bud?

He's got an excuse you don't 😱😳

Basically the teacher should dampen the bricks prior to laying them then the perp joint wouldn't fall off all the time. Lots of brickies tap the brick but with practice you just manipulate the brick to the line. And no you don't put washing up liquid in the compo! Febmix or another plasticiser should be used. And yes I am a brickie

Looks like Sharp sand in that muck..... Got no stick to it what ever it is!

The bricklaying game has alot of World champion bricklayers, they like to sit in the bait cabins shouting of how good they are, but we all get paid the same

What’s with the tap tap tap and the rushing about ? Teach the lads steady away and no tapping

Good labourer this bloke, labourer at best

Check out charlie collision

Two days student passes teacher 😂

Trowel to big to start with muck needs knocking making it hard for him but good effort

Cross joints always falling off WTF

Dunno if its the sand but that muck is horrible. Falling off the brick.

Listening to you Bud makes home sick

My first day laying brick to a line my boss told me he didn’t care if I only layed one brick per course that brick better be right! My second day me told me that one brick a course wasn’t going to cut it?

Is he a bricklayer or woodpecker?

Best thing I was ever thought was lay bricks with your eyes mate spread out good bed so you have enough for perps aswell when pushing down lean brick back slightly so mud pushed out on front pick up with trowel lay to line next brick ,only tap if you have to and never go back to mud board if you don’t have to

Surely you have a bit of fairy liquid in there somewhere...to make that mortar stick

Those first tentative bricks, All feels very awkward. Good effort though. Repetition repetition and soon be flying.

Get him pick and dipping if he struggling to butter the brick

He can lay bricks to be fare but way to many movements going on and buttering up needs work ! Good effort ! it just looks very old fashioned way of laying compared to these days ! Certainly no need for the tap tap tap !!

Way to many movements to fix your bed.

You still got no laces WTF 😒

You either have it or you dont unfortunately he never will

A DIY er teaching a trainee. Unfortunately budd wouldn’t even cut it at improver level with his trowel skills. He needs to go to college to learn himself. I can’t believe he’s the cheek to make tutorial vids 🤦🏼‍♂️ Budd must of learnt in the 70s When the bricklaying standard was at its lowest point.

No skills
