I kinda like the jumpers, maybe just not as many as you put in. I think that they are what make it look more like nat. stone.

It's almost identical to my set. I'll have to try and find that pic on one of my pc's. Same here I got paid. I wanted to elaborate it but they didn't want to spend anymore $$ on patio.

I like the look of the jumpers, but Techo isn't controlling the width dimension close enough. The jumpers seem to F up the next course, and nothing sits flat like it should when you put them in.

Turns into a ABSOULT NIGHTMARE!!! The amount of peices you need to cut and grind down is ridiclous. Putting in veticals takes atleast 2 -3 times as long.

For the price you need to charge to put in verticals, it just does not make sense to do a SRW wall!! For the price difference you need to charge, you could do a full masonry wall!

Maybe my guys are retarded. I don't know. All i know is i lost my shirt on my first quarry stone wall with verticals.

That's a shame. That was a nice shirt.

Really though, your guys aren't retarded.... well, I don't know maybe they are, but there is definately a dimensional issue with the QS jumpers.

no doubt, i was ready to fire my guys the first time they were putting in a quarry stone wall like that. when i calmed down i realized that i was made by Canadians, i understood. J/K :BigSmile::canada:
