@curium this guy mainly https://youtube.com/c/PlasteringForBeginners first vid I watched was this one by Skill Builder and I bought the gear they recommended

I’d screwed down some chocks to stop things moving but you’re both right- it was a bit nerve wracking stepping on! I didn’t know what else to do! Out of the woods now :)

Plaster one face one day, and the other face the day after?

follow up- I used a board for the lower parts and leant over with my hop up for the rest

Hi all, novice plasterer here :) I’m plastering my own house and learning from YouTube videos how am I supposed to plaster the wall over the stair. To plaster the ceiling I had a ladder leant up against it, but (obviously?) the ladder cannot be there while I’m plastering that wall?! So how do...
