  1. Hello,

    I was wondering if I could get some information. My grandfather was a retired bricklayer and my dad was a plasterer for 15 years. I’m 60 and had a massive stroke 5 years ago. I work every day for small improvements. Never give up. I want to build a brick peered wrought iron fence in my back yard. Most think it’s impossible. One obstacle is moving brick and concrete block around. I’m thinking of a 4 wheeled platform or cart of sorts that I can push around and then read up on how the union would build those peers. I could even raise or lower the platform if building a wall. Or motorized it. I’m on Medicare now so funds are limited. So my question are:

    Do you know if any such cart?
    Is it possible to build one?
    Where can I learn the right way to build peers, walls and hell maybe a garage?
    Any other things that may help a 1 armed man

    My Dad was a union man his whole life and I appreciate what it provided,

    Thanks
    Mick Newsham
