What a fantastic tip. Tried my hand at bricklaying, I wasn't bad but I wasn't great and this was one thing I always bloody struggled with

Stand face on to the wall instead of side on and you can eye you’re perps down easily. I don’t understand why but lots of bricklayers struggle to lay face on

What do you do when a window opening isn't a full of half brick away from an external corner?

I have some plans where the face brick opening is 1250mm from the outside corner, which is doesnt work out for 215 x 102.5 x 65mm brick?

Its 1250mm to keep the window opening centralised to the room from the inside.
