[QUOTE="Goweresque, post: 7515847, member: 818"] This. I've had a professional stonemason rebuilding and repointing stone walls on and off here for the last 5 or 6 years (he's a bit of an itinerant, lives in a van, does 3-4 weeks work then you don't see him for for 6 months, but very good at his trade). He slaps it all in roughly, lets it set to a certain point then rubs all the joints down to a smooth finish with a wire brush. Saves hours of faffing around trying to get each joint perfect with wet mortar. Same principle applies to brick pointing, the tools and timing might differ a bit though. [/QUOTE]
