Once you have watched a few 20 min. video's and have a good grasp of things, this video works well as a condensed summary. It covers everything without going into too much detail.

you create a fall with the pegs, but then when you compact it afterwards, surely you'll very likely lose the correct fall ?

When pointing, you put dry mix between the slabs, then said leave to dry? Was there a step missing to wet the pointing mix after filling the gaps?

Does the sub base cover over the wooden stakes/pegs when using the wacker plate?

I’m confused at why we’re creating a slight drop with the wooden pegs every 1.5m by 25mm? Is this for drainage or something

What is the ratio of cement and sand mixed, may I ask?

[JAYIRL]

5 parts sand to one part cement is that correct?
