Abstract: A hopper dispenses cement or mortar into the space between side by side paving bricks. The hopper is a self supporting container. The container has opposing container sides converging downwardly to an elongated opening. This elongated opening extends for most of the length of the container. The opening has just below it a spaced pair of thin parallel guides for guiding the cement or mortar into the space between the paving bricks.

Abstract: A combination joint rake and jointer tool for raking and smoothing mortar in the joints of brickwork is described herein. The tool is used for removing excess mortar and for smoothing the remaining mortar. The tool has an elongated tool body having a medial portion forming a handle therefor. A sled bar for smoothing the mortar is attached at both ends of the handle. The sled bar has curved end portions extending from the handle and a runner portion therebetween. Further, a rake and carriage assembly attached at one end of the enlongated tool body includes, in turn, a rake and carriage support attached to one end of the elongated tool body; a pair of wheels attached to the support with one of the pair of wheels on each side of the support for supporting the tool body and sled bar means during travel across the face of the brickwork. An adjustable rake is attached to and extends from the support, which rake is adjustable to a predetermined depth in to the joints.
