The foreman told me my head joints were "smiling at him" and now I check every course
Two weeks ago on a job in Fresno, the foreman walked up to my wall and just stared at it for a minute. Then he pointed at the head joints and said they were smiling at him, meaning they were all leaning the same way, about a quarter inch off over six courses. I had been rushing to keep up with the lead mason and never stepped back to look at the whole face. Now I walk back about 15 feet after every two courses and eyeball the joints before I keep going. Cost me 20 minutes a day but the walls come out straight and I am not tearing anything down anymore. How far back do you all stand to check your line and joints?
