My man knew what he wanted out of the stone when he started..and in the end he got it in the wall thats what counts..getting the squares up...only a rookie will wander the job site looking for the free bee..... a master will cut to fit.. by hand
when you guys are ready to move to the big leagues come out to Rockport MA and try to cut and quarry GRANITE with us instead of banging junk with a mallet
way to go turn that nice stone into a pile of spawls. find one that fits better instead of wasting bigger ones. and fyi, its easier to trim on a good tree stump, or a stack of block with a good piece of wood on top. and safety glasses are not always needed if you know how to aim your swing.
making backfill? I know every mason thinks they are the best and everyone else sucks. I try to be as humble as I can about my craft, but honestly what are you doing here? It looks like you changed your mind about what the rock was supposed to look like until there was nothing left and gave up.
wow guys hard on them rocks.maybe u should just break the saw out lol put ur hammer away...it takes time every mason has there way just make it look nice no rock stacks or cross roads keep your joints the same and thats what counts you will find your own...
Get a beer keg, place a 15 by 15 by 6 inch block of timber on it then on top of that place a tough mail sack partly fillrd with sand and tied. Its an excellent and easily moveable banker, also thes and bag holds odd shaped stones steadier. Best of luck from an Irish stonemason!
Should'nt really hit the overhang from its bottom, it will blow out more then u want, always hit it from the top, and maybe get a scotch for some of them darn lumps. But i do feel ur pain!
Althou it is a good job in my mind. cant beat the feeling of standing back ad looking at the wall u built.
holy . you need to whack together a table or you won't be walking at 40, two inner tubes filled with sand and the stone wont jump around all over. maybe think about getting some safety glasses. a bolster chisel would save a lot of time and your rock would be 1/2 the size when it was squared
this lads prob just got loads of stone.most masons never have enough good stone always stuck with shit cause the best of it goes in the first few days.hes not dry dyking.hes dressing the stone down to make for the style of wall hes making.does anyone else here think its strange how on worlds strongest man and that they strugle to lift medium stones.most folk i work with are about 13 stone and can lift 300kgs for like 50 meters if he felt the need to
you made allot of people mad with this video. well done. the more people that take time to yell at you for whatever reason, the less time they are out making babies. rock on mason.
my fucking scivy who works for forty pounds a day can cut stone better than that you are fucking shit can u even lay stone u retard come 2 cornwall and lern some real slkilz spiting and cuttin granite and slate. fagget
whit a hammer or a sledgehammer, it ain't that dangerous. But if your cutting, then you better whats out for the splints thats coming in a wherry hay speed. I was cutting out a hole to a toilet in a granite-tile ones and a splint draw it self up in my eye just between the iris and the "white stuff".
looks like some tenn feild stone that shit is a pain in the ass specialy drystacking..and the idiots talkin bout saftey glasses...psh saftey glasses are for pussy's!!lol
iam currently rebuilding a medevil castle out of quartzite granit you could beat that all day and not breack it and why are you just breacking big rocks into small ones i just find a small one that fitsi cant work out what you are doing
Good way to make pinner's dude but I wouldn't like to rely on that type of workmanship unless it was for dry build walling! The stone is week and de-laminated
Good Job, but arthritis might rear it's ugly head so watch out. Also, the latinos are taking over the construction industry so get out while the gettin's good.

you really need a banker and some decent chisels. Don't be a brick hammer mason. You also need to stop face bedding the stone. It won't last
