Overheard a new apprentice swear by the hawk and trowel method for everything
I was grabbing mortar at the supply yard and heard this young kid telling his buddy that you should never use a mudboard because it's old school and slow. Been laying brick for 15 years and I still use my board for half my work, especially on big runs where speed matters more than looking fancy. Who else thinks the old school ways still have a place in this trade?
