How to build a wall:
- Determine where it’s going and what it looks like
- Dig a trench for the foundation and set your forms
- Install reinforcing steel
- Pour concrete for the foundation and let it set
- Get a load of bricks and mortar
- Did I mention that you should decide if you’re building this wall yourself?
- Lay down the first course of bricks, ensuring they’re perfectly level, and properly-spaced
- Continue laying bricks, perfectly level, and properly-spaced
- Continue laying bricks, perfectly level, and properly-spaced
- Continue laying bricks, perfectly level, and properly-spaced
- Install scaffolding when your wall gets too high to reach from the ground
- Continue laying bricks, perfectly level, and properly-spaced
- For a super strong wall, fill all the open cells with concrete
- Cap off your wall with one final course of perfectly level and properly-spaced bricks
- Clean-up after yourself
- Admire your wall.
- Go build another one.
Building anything of value requires the same steps (in roughly the same order) as building a big ass wall…one brick at a time.

What about the reinforcement bar? Gotta have reinforcement!!!!!
So true. It’s in my list (install reinforcing steel). Without reinforcement, everything collapses!
