Lochside bricks were manufactured in Townhill, to the north of Dunfermline, from 1902 to 1974. This brick was washed up on the banks of the River Forth at Crombie, its edges smoothed and rounded by the water.
for the folks at Apt. Therapy, my version of the BDDW walls thread.
I essentially 'grouted' the bricks with latex-modified thinset. I've worked with drywall mud/plaster mixes before, they're a bitch. Thinset is great, the latex-modifed will stick to practically anything, and won't give you the shrinkage problems of a drywall mud mix.
1. Clean the bricks
2. I mixed up the thinset, put it on heavy with a float, then sponged some of it off. Thinset works and sets much like grout. You could easily leave on enough to make it look like the BDDW pic, but i wanted it a little more on this side of brick.
3. After it's dry, prime and paint
