Mighty ambitious doing it all yourself bud. Well done though. Plastering can be real tricky but hopefuly you'll do ok.

ok, heres the result of me and my mates efforts. hes actually great at finishing of the plastering which is a huge help.

It's looking good so far.

Best thing is you're learning new skills at the same time as doing it.
