Coming Along


Coming Along, originally uploaded by oocoskun.

After putting caps temporarily. On the curved walls I had to cut every single brick. I did not count how many but takes time. First you have to mark it where you have to cut . Since I was using we saw I marked those with permanent marker than cut it. I can't compare my work with somebody else, I never done this before so I had to come up with lots of new thing to me. I read and watch guides but they don' tel you everything.

I enjoyed using this strong Stihl cutter. I used water, i have no idea how they can cut without water. It gives more lifespan and cuts the almost all the dust. it is a must in the neighborhood.

Start to lay Bricks


Start to lay Bricks, originally uploaded by oocoskun.

After compacting trench we put gravel and compact more and start to play bricks. For the pillars I decided to put concrete blocks instead of regular Unilock bricks since they will not be visible. I believe I saved so many expensive bricks.
