Above
is the rear of a lath wall created using Stabil
mat, which is a roll of reed. The initial coat of plaster is Claytec
undercoat, a clay plaster mixed with straw. This can also be used as daub
on wattle and daub walls. Please
take note how the plaster is pushed throught the gaps in the lath, as this is
vital when creating a key to secure the plaster into the lath. |
