Patching for dummies
Having spent short periods of my life in “older homes”, the traditional plaster-and-lath wall is familiar. I’ve never built one, or tried to repair one; the closest I’ve come is putting a bit of paint or cheap wallpaper, but any time I’ve gone roaming through abandoned farm houses (don’t ask, don’t tell) I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the lasting power of the material. Good for centuries. Not so the modern replacement.
