  • This guy is a rookie. He hasn't been doing this for long.

  • @primate4 Exactly...even less then a rookie! Just shows you ANYONE can do it with the use of the Spacers

  • Make sure you "butter" extra thick to insure a positive connection between joints as the spacers will only allow so much play. you want to compress mortar.

  • you could also use ballbearings for spacers. But we usually mix the mortar the same and have no problems. I've even put up block walls by running the walls without building up the corners. But you have to know what you are doing.

  • @tubeyou9878 Spacers span across and underneath two corresponding blocks enabling both to be the same level.

  • I am glad to see a quality video on this topic. If you mortar blocks, then this will give good results.

  • I was in a bit of a bind a couple of weeks ago, and if it wasn't for finding your product I don't think I would have had the guts to attempt doing the blockwork myself. Job turned out GREAT!

  • He's Smearing those block soooo much. When you cut the mortar off, hold the trowel at more of an angle.

  • Very helpful

  • @paramo81 Because joint spacers are faster and easier.. :S

    

  • @paramo81 Basically the Spacers are used to keep the minimum 3/8' joint.

  • likj

  • cool

  • Great idea with the spacers. Would it be possible to place 2 3/8" rebar horizontally as spacers using your same concept with extra thick mortar. The rebar will also add strentgh to the wall once the cells are filled with grout.
