Made a wattle and daub wall. It's surprisingly hard to get right.

What was hard about it? Also what was the wall for?

Well apparently a few things that nobody actually bothered to write down is what kind of mud of need, how hard you need to force it into the wood, how much fiber you need to add.

I mean, it's kinda like those old cookbooks that just say "keep in medium oven until done". Everyone just sort of assumes you have the Knack.

Its partly because I do reenactment, and partly because I want a shed that I made myself. This is mostly a test to see how long it will survive in the rainy Netherlands.
