Regardless of his or her experience, if they are using Brikmat, they will get the same visual appearance. He said the product ($38 per box) stabilizes masonry, increases productivity, allows a greater number of courses to be built with decorative and heavy materials, and provides an "excellent visual appearance."

Keep it Clean
Until someone develops tools that clean themselves, the job still falls to masons. But at least they have tool wipes from Cortec Corporation to make the job easier. Corwipe 500 ($10 for 25 wipes) are designed to remove light rust, grease, oil and dust, while leaving behind a thin film of corrosive inhibitors. "The main objective of our tool wipes is to protect against rust," said John Wiermaa, technical sales representative for the St. Paul, Minn.-based company. "You have to clean the rust away every time you use a tool." The 5" x 5", non-woven fabric wipes are non-hazardous and difficult to tear, even with the toughest of rubbing. With more and more masonry tools going stainless steel, Wiermaa still sees a market for his product. For more information, visit www.cortecvci.com.

Tough, Motorized and Four Times the Capacity
THE JOE BUILT motorized wheelbarrow ($3,900) hauls up to 11 cu. ft. and 1,200 lbs., giving it four times the capacity of standard wheelbarrows. The three-speed transmission, plus reverse, makes operation effortless, while disc brakes allow it to stop on a dime. Commercial-grade casters in the rear stabilize the load. "We've been selling quite a few for hauling to areas where you can't get a truck," said David Strand, president of Joe Built in East Troy, Wis. "Ours does well on a 30-degree incline and can haul better than one-third of a yard." The Joe Built also dumps the load, eliminating the need for manual unloading. "It's very easy to tip 1,200 pounds," Strand said. "Ours has a powerful two-stroke engine, so you can tip the wheelbarrow."
