    Yeah, real labor saving device. 1 man placing the blocks on the machine 1 man operating the machine 1 man mixing the mortar and 1 man setting the blocks.

    the old way 1 man supplies the mortar and hands the blocks to the mason who sets the blocks Both will place blocks near the work as needed

    Those solid blocks might be a little heavier than cinder blocks...

    If they are anything like the ones, I've seen used in the middle east they are about half the weight of a hollow cement block. I don't know what they were made of but you could scratch them with your fingernail

    I dunno, the way the mortar squeezes out when the block is lowered those arent very light weight.
