Bandaging the third row of the extension

The erection of walls continues, I'm a beginner in this business, so I use the available information and develop a skill. I laid out the third row (on the advice) it must be tied with fittings. The question arose, how best to do this?

Confirmed idea

There was a thought make a slab and put reinforcement in it. In a previous article, the practitioner reader, wrote that he does sousing angle grinder, so the idea is working.

Marking and straba

I laid out the reinforcement on the stone, it was not possible to perfectly align it, so I marked it straight along it. I decided to cut the groove with a hacksaw so that there was less dust. Shell for a hacksaw is not a problem, the only inconvenience is its shape, the handle is in the horizon of the canvas. A butt saw would have worked well for this, but it wasn't.

He expanded and marked the shtraba with a slotted screwdriver.

It turned out slowly, spat, took a grinder with a disc on a tile, dusty, but things went faster.

Pros and cons

The advantage of laying reinforcement bars for a novice bricklayer is that it does not stick out and does not "play".

The disadvantage of this method is the time spent on this operation, I saw that experienced bricklayers do without a penalty, for that they are specialists.
