I will be in Abiquiu June 11-15.  I could go early or stay late, if that would be soon enough for you to get some help.  I will warn you that I am inexperienced.

Nope, you're the plaster lady :)   I haven't plastered anything yet.

When you find a good recipe, please post it.

The leaks in my mixer stop dripping once I start mixing pulp. None of them are really big, though.

It hasn't been used for years and yes it has a million leaks. I think I will not even bother with it. When we did the floor we mixed the slurry in a mortar boat and it worked really well. I used the bale of pulverized paper. To tell you the truth I'm not sure if I'm up to this but something needs to be done. Do you have a good recipe for exterior plaster?

What's the problem with the mixer? Leaks?

I went up to the mesa today to check on the little places I built up there. I must say the mice have had a cozy winter, but they have been evicted. What I'm thinking is that I am going to have to finish the exteriors this summer. Is anyone interested in coming to Abiquiu for a few days to get these places exterior plastered? Let me know and I will get to work on dates and specifics. I know one thing, the tow mixer needs major work, or maybe we will just have to mix the plaster in buckets. Anyway. if anyone is interested in coming out for a few days to do some papercrete plaster let me know OK?
