The title.
Feel free to ask me stuff. I’m in Scotland, born in Canada. I’ve been a mason for coming on 15 years. And my favourite dinosaur is…not really a dinosaur…the Stenopterygius species. because they’re tubby not quite dolphin looking (apparently) reptiles.
What kind of brick? I happen to be at work, and there happens to be both a scale and an old Red Stock brick, they don’t make those ones anymore, but the one I had on hand weighed in at bang on 4kg.
Edit: newer bricks tend to be a lot lighter. An engineering brick, which has holes in it, is likely less than a kg
Edit²: forgot about the smashup! Stonemasons for sure. Most of the Freemasons I’ve met have been a bit on the older side, and quite unfit. Also stonemasons have a wide selection of hammers, crowbars and trowels. And honestly I am not entirely sure which of the three would suck the least to be hit with. Hammers and bars are obviously blunt force trauma…but I’ve cut the ever loving fuck out of myself reaching into my bag and forgetting to be careful of the trowel. 12 stitches!
