IF your not a pro this won't come easy. Laying brick, er bottles, can't
be learned over night. Well if you want a good end product that is.
You'll need to layout the wall, consider reinforcing, then be able to
lay the "corner lead" level, plumb, square (if called for), and in
range. IF you can't do so within a certain tolerance you jeopardize the
stability of the structure. If you can, then bravo.
If your a novice the best thing to do would be to hire (or barter) the services of a bricklayer to lay the corners for you. The corners are built first and then the middle is filled in. If you want to play, jump in the middle of the wall where you can be "supervised" by the pros and really can't muck things up too much.
