For those of you looking to get a start in the bricklaying trade, here's a video i came across that will give you some inspiration.

The video is for the SPEC MIX BRICKLAYER 500 National competition and was taken at the World of Concrete / World of Masonry trade show. It's held at the Las Vegas Convention centre and is apparently the biggest annual trade show in the world - get this - over 92,000 people pay to watch the action. I doubt you'd get that many people pay to watch a sparky or a chippy!
Remember - walls are built one brick at a time.
