Laid my first 500 bricks in a day on the new school job in Springfield
Been laying for six years but always stuck around 350, maybe 400 on a real good day. My foreman just counted my section and told me the number... honestly thought he was joking. What's a personal best that caught you off guard?

Check your trowel before tomorrow. A new or resharpened one can throw off your feel and make you work faster without realizing it. Also make sure your mortar mix isn't getting too wet as the day goes on - that'll slow you down way more than you think.

Did you find the rhythm just clicked today? That's a huge jump, good for you. Ignore the doubters, @emmaking, a straight line is still a solid wall.

Not to be a downer but it's just bricks, @emmaking. A big jump like that seems kinda hard to believe.
