1. A masonry guiding tool for attachment to a backing wall and for use with a plumb line, comprising:
a base member, for attachment to the backing wall, said base member defining two ends and a retaining channel which has openings
at both said two ends of said base member; and
an elbowed plumb line holder, comprising an elongated mounting portion defining a first axis in therealong, said mounting
portion movably carried by said base member in said retaining channel and axially movable relative thereto to said base member
along said first axis which is destined to be parallel to the backing wall, said plumb line holder also comprising an elongated
plumb line support portion transversally connected to said mounting portion, said elongated plumb line support portion defining
and extending along a second axis transversal to said first axis, said plumb line support portion for movably holding a the
plumb line;
wherein said guiding tool is for allowing the plumb line to be movable along said first axis by axially moving said mounting
portion relative to said base member, and wherein said plumb line support portion is destined to movably carry the plumb line
in order for the plumb line to be movable along said second axis of said plumb line support portion, and wherein said plumb
line support portion can be selectively positioned beyond either one of said two ends of said base member along said first
