Hi,
i am about where you were in this picture (post #22) 4 courses built) (although, my arch and landing work is not yet built). How much tapering did you do on your bricks? I did the first 3 course without any tapering, just a straight cut down the middle to make equal sized bricks and I'm using lots of mortar. Also, the gaps between the brick on the outside are pretty wide. Did I see somewhere that we want to limit the gaps to 1/8"? Anyways, just curious how you did yours. I'd like to avoid having to do too much tapering of the brick because it sounds hard and time consuming to make all those cuts.
Thanks!
