Brick Laying Machine

pretty ingenious-

Now that is neat to look at! I bet it's even better in person. Where was this thing when I was landscaping my backyard in Tucson??? 😛

Very cool!

if they keep it up their will not be any reason for this guy to cross the boarder.

And you are, of course, a better man than him, right?

Edit: my apologies, Snoop. That 's not what you meant at all I see after a second look. I 'm sorry.

Looks Dutch or German, probably Dutch.

I like what one person said about the musik in a similar video!

Then the machines came to replace the bricklayers,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a bricklayer...

I thought about it that way too. My grandpa was a carpenter and brick layer and I remember my mom telling me stories about how machines took over some of his work stuff and so he had to look for another kind of work to support his 7 kids, 2 nephews and his wife. Grandpa became a truck driver. The day that the humans get the boot out of the cab and the machines start driving all of the semis on the highways is the day I'm getting off of the road!!! :-/

I took a brick laying course about 15 years ago. That's some tough work. Carrying bricks and mixing mortar kicked my butt then.......I know it would be harder now. I think surveyors are naturals for it, though. We generally have "the eye" that makes it easier to keep things "straight".

From the the title, I thought this was going to be a thread about Shaq's free throw attempts. 😉 Sorry.
