A blog dedicated towards architectural refinement of buildings and environments in which we live, work, and play. Chiefly this is brought about by the author with finish carpentry at heart, and many other disciplines radiating or spinning off from it.

Painting Over the Stairwell - 2010
The second to last move. Where once it was thought that a special stagger piece could be used - incorporated with the larger S-Style Scaffolding - an additional section of Baker Scaffolding was used instead, and "marched" down the stairway with angle braces clamped onto the decorative iron to stiffen it.
An improvised method of catching as much debris or fresh plaster as possible.
Chipping out the plaster in areas where it was delaminating, then filling with Structo-lite plaster.
Floating over the Structolite filler with gypsum compound.
With the last gypsum float dry and primed.
Painted!
