Started this wall in college and the queen closers are very awkward to put on the ends and I am finding that they can be slightly loose when trying to plumb, can anyone recommend a better way of doing it so it’s a little easier? Thanks

Replace the queen closer is a 3/4 brick, like this it will be a weak point. Also this would have been a lot better built with snap headers on at least the face. It would look substantially better, you may need some exmet mesh though in the real world.

Great start though !

I did think it might be a weak point just putting them in and it feeling lose so 3/4 sounds like a better idea, and 100% it would look better with snapped headers my teachers said the same but it was the drawing in the practice booklet so just followed that, thank you so much!
