WAYWT - The Hard Labour Edition aka "Working in your workwear".

Back at it with the entry way remodel but the deck is done (thank feck) and now working on a brick walkway… something way more in my comfort zone. Sharing some pics from last weekend/leading into today. Rocking the 14oz work cut (forgot the ID for these) throughout so get to not only enjoy looking at the walkway progress at end of day but love looking over the fade evo from the day as well!

@Denman-John thank you!! More to come of both

Not much for visual progress on walkway and 14oz over the weekend but progress nonetheless. Pitch and foundation complete so should move “quicker” going forward. Establishing the pitch was very challenging and pry should’ve thought out the distance between steps a little more to help offset some but still should look good in the end.

@flannel-slut nah thats looking good i like where its going. thats the fun part.
I did about the ONLY kinda work i'll never do in my IH over the weekend: installing fiberglass insulation. So i've got nothing to show for it lol
-
@WhiskeySandwich I do not envy your weekend w the fiberglass installation! And really appreciate the reinforcement man. Spent a few late nights looking at it/planning and has been a fun process
-
It’s getting there! Pry for the best I’m limited to working on it mostly during the weekends, lower back is shot

everything’s better when it’s a little dirty.

@SKT thanks man! Honestly it’s hard to rate. It takes a decent amount of preplanning and patience but I’d say 5 out of 10 in terms of difficulty. Need to be okay with working a saw for half cuts and pay extra care to foundation/side wall.
My dad had his own landscaping business and used to work high school and college summers with him. I helped w about 7 or 8 of these brick walkways back then so was a lot more comfortable doing this than the damn deck - no secret YouTube is a hell of a resource but feel free to DM if you do decide to take it on.

@flannel-slut thanks man. I may give you a shout for some pointers when I get serious. Keep us posted on your progress if you have time.

incoming photo dump/spam alert More or less finished up! a lot went into this over the past month and couldn’t be happier with how it ended up
-
@flannel-slut outstanding…time to crack open one or three
-
Great work @flannel-slut curb appeal looks
more inviting. Hope all that hard work doesn’t attract unwanted solicitors 
-
@flannel-slut looks great ~ nice work!
-
@flannel-slut Nicely done.
-
@flannel-slut Walkway looks great.
-
Thank you so much for the kind words

Wow @flannel-slut that turned out amazing! Laying brick is a major challenge. When we put down a brick parking space the part that messed us up was getting the turf underneath level. It turned out pretty wavy
