This one went well even if I did take 4 stings to the same eyelid!

Good job, thanks for the post.

How do you go about patching a wall like that?

D, If the owner wants us to do the repairs (which is only about 1 out of 4) we place two stucco corners (lath 90s) in the cavity and trowel on a scratch coat. The next day we trowel on a finish coat and re-strike the mortar lines between block. After paint you can't tell we were ever there.

If I took 4 stings to the same eyelid, I wouldnt be able to see for a week. Plus all the kids at my school would make fun of me to boot LoL. Nice video.

I just might have to do one of these with you one day, especially the repair part. No one down here wants you opening up their cinder blocks but if I could sell them on repairs that would be a whole nother thing. Have one right now in an apartment building with overhead hollow block beams. Just may be giving you a call on that one.

Great job!
