Hi guys.
I've got a question about pointing as I've never done it. I've watched a couple of videos and out of recessed pointing and bucket handle pointing, I think bucket handle looks a bit easier and looks very nice. I won't bother with weatherstruck as it looks more difficult.
Would you say bucket handle is easier and do you recommend I buy a bucket handle brick jointer iron, or do recessed and buy a tuck pointer?
And to rake out very old and hard mortar, are those chariot rakers with two wheels with a nail good enough for the job or will I need to use my chisel and hammer?
