ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a new guide for brick laying for facilitating uniform arrangement of bricks during construction of floors, walkways, patios, and the like. The guide comprises a rectangular lattice panel having square openings for temporary placement flat on top of a prepared work area whereby bricks placed inside the square openings will automatically align to a desired pattern. A handle is included whereby a user may easily grasp the panel after brick placement to facilitate removal of the panel without disturbing alignment of the bricks. The lattice panel is separated longitudinally into hingedly connected left and right half panels for providing an operating position wherein the half panels extend coplanarly relative to each other and a storage/transport position wherein the right half panel is pivoted 180.degree. to lie adjacent the left half panel. A latch is additionally included whereby the panels may be releasably locked in the operating position to prevent unwanted pivotal movement thereof.
