Does anyone have any advice on doing this. How level is level? Will
the dry mix I am using be secure enough on top of the existing patio?

I did mine using half bricks on dabs of mortar. I setup a rotating laser
level and just used a ruler to measure down to each brick to get the
height right on the mortar dab:

(using a long level on a few key bricks would work as well, filling in
the others once the reference ones are in place)
