Battle against the mud

 

 The wall heater pipes had to be covered with mud in the first stuccoing-step.  Then, we put a layer of cloth (like from potato sacks) over that to keep the mud from cracking.  Finally, we mudded a thin smooth layer on top.

 A view of the entry-way.  The front door is covered in plastic.  The big black pipes are from the mudding-machine.  All in all, we lived in complete chaos from Halloween to December 1st.

 A view of the upstairs hall looking toward the WC.  We covered all the inner walls (which had already been hand-stuccoed) with sheets of plastic to protect them from flying mudballs.

 Our bathroom.  Obviously there was no chance of becoming cleaner in here.  We did "shower-touring" from Halloween till December 20th!
