We are trying to salvage as much of our old brick as possible to reuse in a new addition. We're using a carbide blade to cut the mortar and that is working well. We're hand chipping the old mortar off but are looking for a better (easier) method. We were wondering if it would be worth the cost to rent an air chisel or if there is something better out there. Thanks.
