Craftsmanship

To pave a path with bricks is a real craftsmanship. In past times all our streets were made like this. Now most roadways are asphalted or made of concrete, but foothpaths are still made of bricks or paving stones.

If you are interested how it works watch this video of a competition of pave workers who had to make a mill in the pavement.

  1. I enjoyed watching the video. These men are real craftsmen...far more difficult that merely laying asphalt. The winners looked pretty pleased with themselves...as they should. Terrific windmill designs.

  2. Oh my back! It hurt watching that video. Yes, real artists. The walkway had me wondering working in from both sides. They must be confident it will meet in the middle just right. I wouldn't trust myself.
