You made my night! And here is why. The post that you put up for me back in June I saved to a Word file and used as my basis for the work I did. Also a couple others, but yours was the most detailed. I spent a good amount of time on that corner because it was the "perfect" level for the other two directions and because I wanted to walk by it daily and be happy with it.
Here is the story on the top row. Those are solid concrete blocks. I needed the wall to be a specific height and that required a certain size block and I wanted them solid to exclude water. Problem is, they are REALLY heavy and not at a comfortable height. Even after weeks of working with the normal blocks, these were giving me trouble. So I decided to make my life easier and not try to mortar the ends. I filled those in a few days later with a mortar bag. They are filled up now and water cannot get down into the wall from the top.
Thanks for taking the time to help me back in June. Your advice was used to good effect. The wall has a run out in the center of about 1/8-1/4" because the string gave me a little trouble. Level all the way across. I made a major mistake at one point, but figured a way to fix it and you would never know and I am not confessing! :)

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
