How do you do a beaded joint in tuckpointing?

To create a beaded joint in tuckpointing, first ensure the mortar joint is clean and free of debris. Apply a mortar mix to the joint, then use a pointing tool or a flat trowel to shape the mortar into a rounded, bead-like profile. Smooth the edges to create a neat finish, ensuring the bead is consistent in size and shape throughout. Finally, allow the mortar to cure properly before exposing it to moisture.
