Firebrid: The Prius v Powered Hybrid Convertible

let me know if you need any advice, i've been accused of making a mountain out of a molehill

 

Ah a blank canvas.

I look forward to the “after” pic.

 

wow, are those footings without forms?

 

looking good!

(ive never understood how they get concrete block so level)

 

Levels are involved. And string.

 

And planning and attention to detail.

 

And mortar, which gives you a fresh chance on every course to correct for any small errors that crept into the course below.

 

i've tried my hand at it, it's beyond me. above my pay grade i guess

 

I was a hod carrier one summer in college. It got me in better shape than football or wrestling! And ... I kind of learned to lay block and brick by watching the guy who was trying to work me to death.

 

Are you saying you tend to get off course??

 

Maybe just not built for it.

 

only when playing golf

 

So, courses of block & brick are OK then?

 

nah, they're all over the place. looks more like a cow path than a foundation. i can't even lay fake walls, and they just stack on each other.

i was never good with lego's.

 

Yes - and I'd rather lay blocks than sheet with plasterboard - on a ceiling!!!

 

Dude, where was your string?
