I find this process endlessly interesting. The jig is placed, bricks are spaced with spacers (which also act as forms for the mortar). The gaps are filled, and they move on to the next row. Another guy follows behind after the mortar has set up a bit, and uses a special tool to scrape excess mortar from the joints to make it look perfect. It's fussy work.
Tacho lays the brick, and his assistant works a few courses behind cleaning the joints before the mortar sets up.
Worker starts a new course.
Worker follows behind the bricklayer, scraping the joints. There are 3 different bricklaying teams, supported by 3 other workers bringing bricks and mortar
