Look at the BIA (Brick Industry Association) web site. The Tech Notes section have good information. Pay attention to recommendations for mortar prep. TB

The Posting on Ebay is for a "re-pointing gun", and says it has some streaming video available on "how-to"
Good luck.
I don't know anything about brickwork or "pointing" but was intrigued by this post enough to go and learn a little bit at least.

after years of pointing chimneys and walls with a slick and strike, i nearly cried the first time i saw a recent immigrant from europe using a cake icing bag to do the same job in one tenth the time. that was ten years back, i now see that marshalltown and others are manu'g the bags for brick and stone work. hint: use silica sand for high speed results!
