 Well that's a very pretty block like that, isn't it, got a tenon and it's tough going because these things are tight. I'll just show you these little rascals, these are the fifth brick, I don't know what the name is for them but they replace the line cup on the on the black profiles and then we're doing that height over and so we need to come up about a foot so we can look over go to Friday morning five to nine on the ninth of June and it's another glorious day solid sunshine for a long time now so new job well it's a new job but we've between jobs we've we've just left the block extension to come and do this and then we're going back to that one because that one so here we go this is our entrance there's our trestle when we're ready our wheel bar because that's irrelevant down here as you can see it gets a bit narrow here this is our job existing conservatory she's getting taken up another four courses luckily because we work for a great lad's called viking Sean who you've seen viking a lot of very old video they brought everything around for us so we've so there's no messing around getting stuff passed all this and this is the job basically it's just bringing everything up going a bit higher with that fixed to this out here and then cut it back there so it's going to be a two brick pillar all the way up same this side take this side all the way up basically it's a mirror image it so it's two high walls big I think they're probably by folds and again two brick pillar so um Alex just put the starter packs up on there I need to cut back this return because that's going to be a cavity running through now that's the brick we're used to stop there so we're going to return that now and get rid of this straightforward profiles straight on got a good brick match considering them these Cheshire pre-wars were discontinued a while ago look at them and then there's our bricks so there's our sand cement's behind there for some reason they sent bloody seven newton concrete blocks which we didn't ask for and then high strength cement don't know why they sent that that's going to be all right I might have to mix that a bit weaker um there's the rest of cement hopefully you can hear me over Alex drilling because I've got the mic on um I think that's our padstones and then as you can see a couple of steels here with all the holes drilled in and bolts I don't know these must be shims I don't know but anyway they are going in there so we're going to get the shell up and then we're going to get the steels in so all this is coming out and then eventually there's going to be a steel going on this wall across onto this steel and then another steel coming off this steel across there to get rid of this corner and open this out and this obviously is going to be a structurally easy job because you've got the stairs there so those stairs are going to go up onto a trimmer so this is all going to be looking at so it's like I say it's nine o'clock we've had a good touch up with Vic get our bearings see what's what um hang on a minute bear with me a second safety first yeah that's it so it's going to be going off in a bit which is good and we're going to get cracking so um as always I'll stick on the timelapse for a little bit while we get organized and then we'll get back to you later on right um I'm probably just going to put that on the timelapse we've got the laser level set up there and where that line strikes onto the wall there it's still on the patio door there just make it out there in the patio door that is 88mm above that finished height so that's the height we're working to so when you swing the laser over to here there's our laser line so we come 88mm below that 88mm that is level with that so that's our date to work off so what we do now is we measure from that down to that Alex can you just count how many courses are from the dwarf wall to the top of the wall please see the dwarf wall start on the top of that top that one now count how many above it okay so that back down to dwarf wall is 15 93 so can you hold that on chilly yeah this is windy isn't it Alex's t-shirt's back on because he's cold soon won't we start moving the bricks over here especially around that back where it's for the air we do put a couple of blocks down on the floor you know so the bricks onto so that on the floor yeah I'll need to hold camera needs a camera system 15 93 let me just double check that for one time ago hey for one time ago I've already gone the wrong way I went up 28 so the down 88 so 15 93 so that we're fixed there we've got that and we've got that so 15 93 divided by 19 courses 19 of course that's our gauge 83.8 per course which is for these bricks type beds because they're solid I was set these 85 when I'm just building something but we've got to follow what's here so eight so almost 84 per course so then now we go down there and mark our gauge back down to the and then I'll just mark I'll just swing the laser level and put a mark on our profile and that's it then I think yeah profile's high enough so what we do is we're leveling up to that before we put the steels in because then we put the steels on the wall and then steels in and extra four courses and then some brickwork around on the front so I don't think we've got any tape in there haven't we tape the best remark in the profile right I can just spin that laser level out please which is there so pencil marks don't show up very well on these old profiles so bit of tape bit of masking tape that's all we need as long as it sticks so that's our level line round now that is to mill out that's good news and then then I'll just check that in now operation is key I'm going to swivel the base round so everything's level happy days I've got 88 there 88 there that's measured that's measured in mark so that's our gauge so it's and the gauge is 83.8 per course that's a close one nearly had no sound then hopefully you're picking me up and not the mixer which isn't that loud anymore because we've since a fixed it but yeah this we're up to one two three four five six seven two four six eight got ten on and it's tough going because these things are tight extra dry motor's drying out quick let me just show you how dry these brick are dunk it in so that's what it does to your motor basically so you've got to be quick so it's tight beds you're spreading the tight bed and as you spread the tight bed the brick sucks the motor out of it so you've got to get them down as quick as you can otherwise leave it too long and you're banging them down so that's that's um that's what we're up to now two brick with pillar each side return and we've got all the block work to do Scott Mills is on so it's after two but after well yeah so we're going to crack on get these precise we can reach and then drop on the block work hopefully basically to get us in the position to get trestles up tomorrow tomorrow being a Saturday I'm just show you these little rascals these are the fifth brick I don't know I don't know what the name is for them but they replace the line clip on the on the blicks profiles and then you can see there the brick actually fits into the slot so you can't push your brick past the line which you can do with the line clicks so it's it's like it's foolproof if you like so it's good for us speaking of fools I tried using them once and I couldn't get the line worked out properly so I just abandoned them and then I got a message off Richard to say what do I think of them if last night in fact so I said right next time on the profiles I give them a try so I've got them set up with a little heart from a Charlie Cohnson video and they did work great made up with them I recommend you get yourself a set of these so mixer's ready get these two on here and get the line up crack on I've got a few cuts to do we'll probably use a cutter for that we'll see we'll see how my Alex is going to try and do some with the arm and bolster so we keep shifting the board around trying to keep them in the shade see that one over there so that's enough waffle let's get some more brick work done well that's a very pretty block like that isn't it the the concrete block but they're much lighter than the standard ones so much nicer to work with and uh make a nice finish as well if you hope for wallpaper I think they're called rain for things you like to think it's all like that things you like so they're lightweight seven inches and they really are lightweight oh yeah they're much much better than those ones you have to bloody it's so so square and uniform properly all the same size well have a look for yourself get that so that is all done for today it's about just on five so keep seeing so again but now I've lost my trail of thought so yeah that'll be us for today tomorrow we'll get trestles up and then get all this up to steel height well there's no steel and this is the steel it's going here sorry it's going to be steel height though it's going to be the same yeah and yeah well we can done I've completely lost my brain for this out of trouble so I'll just I'll see you tomorrow good Saturday morning Saturday the 10th of June yeah why'd you get me coming out when you check your watch there's yesterday's little bit of brick work we started here and these these are discontinued I'm thinking you'd agree they're quite a good match then the excellent match to be honest and they weren't the worst to set either they were tough because they're dry this they're like extra super dry then so you have to join every course and don't forget your perps which we did but we'll get down we point the profiles yeah so yeah we've got up to we've got um we've put on it 12 2 4 6 8 10 you've got 12 on we're going to get another 11 on today there's the block work then blocks lovely I think they're the rainford things you like ones the seven newton but they're quite they're quite light look at that look how tidy they are lovely straight blocks um yeah so normally we'd put the trestles up on the inside now work overhand but because we can fit the trestles down here we're going to get the 11 off here because these these are difficult to do overhand the um they are different sizes luckily the gauge we're following on the extension is not too bad and the bricks the bricks those original bricks are probably about mill or two mil bit deeper than these which gives us oh nice one fits which gives us a good chance to make it look nice it's always easy when you've got a bigger bed to work with so just trying to screw it down so we're going to get these trestles up I'll just kind of finish putting a mix on profiles going up I think I might put the profile up there properly yeah yeah and we're just doing half a mix at a time because we learnt all this in yesterday that it goes a long way and you leave it for like half an hour it's already dried up so we did it in half at a time there's the sun now at what half eight so it goes around there but it just skims the top of the house so we're building in the in the shade but none of this goes into the shade so um there's no skip but vicks taking the stuff away to a skip at his house so we're going to take all the rubbish around and put it in there I think he's took it with tumbag pallet on the front just so vicks not taking all the crap around himself and yeah that's the plan the plan is just concentrate on the brickwork and see how far we get well we're going to get 11 courses on it and then going home with it being saturday so job and knock on the brickwork here we go bricks are on dad's just got a coffee so well I'll get a mix on after break and we'll uh get this blitz so it was lunch time five and a half courses up which we soon we did a like one hour that's not too bad all the faffing around jumping down going back up uh so it's definitely taking shape a bit better so we will catch you all right half one half mixed number two going in let's see what hits a hot one I think today's the day before the thunderstorms it's like we're getting really hot now great for sitting doing nothing not great for working in so um once that mixes you up on that side it's a job and knock so we're just going to get another five and a half courses on that's what the first mix uses isn't it yeah halfway through yeah and then that side squared up now once I've got one more course on that it's all squared up and then leave that side it's getting a bit of a stretch on the tristles on the oppots is it just like three or four courses on top of that there yeah so we're going to take those back up another three so yeah another three on top of that and then that's it we'll take it from there the doors are going to aren't going to have any brickwork over the top because they're going to be very high it's going to have a very high ceiling in it so the brickwork just wraps around to the doors each side which is good no steel and no brickwork over the front uh plenty of bricks left i'm not into these at all there's massive difference in sizes so yeah massive difference in sizes pretty poor quality very thirsty and hard to work with basically maybe on a rough or wall but not on a on a like a an extension wall but uh close as you can get so tell us let's shut up and put this there we go we think that's the height but we're not positive so i'll just use the motor up on another course on so if we do need to put another course on that all that's just scaffold can be stripped pop a jump up on these four here get those three on if we need to if not we just knock those off simple as just tidying up now i think it's getting on for half three yeah half three bang on yeah well plus a minute so i was getting the tidying up done mix is done um doesn't have to be perfect because we're back on monday as long as we make it tidy for custom getting out with the dog i think that's it everything's covered up for the rate for the thunderstorm tomorrow i'll just need something for the sand don't we we need something for the sand is the tumb bag got anything in it yet the tumb bag got anything in it yet yeah okay scrub that a bit of you know what it's that dry it could do with a bit of water yeah um so that's it good match not the nicest brick to work with but they're not too bad going down obviously they're not supposed to look perfect so you can't get them perfect but quite happy they've turned out that one down there somewhere can you pass me the sweeping brush because the bin the bin's been splashed or cleaned the bin so yeah that's it we're gonna have tomorrow off christine's coming home tonight she's been here since tuesday and uh yeah back on monday monday we're not doing the state we're not doing the brickwork monday we're all coming in concentrating on the steels so that monday tuesday will be the steels then wednesday we'll be finishing everything off getting that up there that'll be scaffolded from this side because the there's no room for the scaffold the trestles over there so the trestle going inside but a bit higher so we can reach over because this is obviously we're doing that height over and so we need to come up about a foot so we can look over so i think it's just tomorrow that's going to be a bit nasty that's why it's warmed up because the thunderstorm's approaching so we'll see you on monday
