Today we did a little bit of testing to see how bad the plaster was upstairs and got carried away in the process. The plaster is so soft that it just crumbles away and it seems like the only thing holding it together is the wallpaper.
By the way, those studs actually measure 2″ x 4″ and the lath was held in place with square nails.
Great project! You guys are to be commended.
