It's easy really. Just lie on your side while placing the bricks. Simples. :D

For that you need a plumb Bob - which is a bloke called Bob who likes plumbs

Take heart.

I used to work at Warner Bros. here in Los Angeles. On the set of "ER" back when George Clooney was not quite as famous as he was now, the exterior of the Emergency Room was on the backlot between my office and the lunch canteen. The air-conditioning ducts on the outside of the "hospital" were weathered, but ... the set painters had them laying on their side when they weathered them, with the result that when they were installed on the set, the "rain stains" ran horizontally, not vertically. The director and producers decided to live with it, rather than have them repainted. It became an inside joke. I still point it out when the reruns air!

See all these bricks at Chez Bealman here in Australia?



They've all laid upside down  :D

Aha, that's why it needs two big pins to hold it in place?

Some of the bricks on the right look like they're working loose  ???

Bealman

The "two big pins" are actually LED downlights.

The bricks at the side connect to a supporting wall. What is actually more worrying is that when the arch was built back in1984, the left hand side was flush with the wall of the house.

In 2019, we have the leaning arch of Bealman!  :worried:

Are you sure it's the arch and not the house?
:P

Get away with you. I'd quite believed Squiddy up until then ::)

Bealman

Yeah, watch it, you.

I'll have you know me drill got stuck in there.

It was going in reverse!

Bealman

The bricks were still laid upside down, and me drill was in reverse  ;D

I can't quite make out the make of your drill but it looks horribly like 'Kinhell' which is perhaps quite appropriate :D

Bealman

You spotted the cheap one, then.

It's stuck in the wall cos I was trying to drill through in reverse! Once I realised the problem, it went through like butter.  :thumbsup:

After I realised the mistake, then I said efinell.  ;D
