First finish plaster tests

We got some white clay and sifted some sand to make up our test batches of finish plaster yesterday.

We struggled to figure out the best way to put them on, but it does seem like the walls are going to be pretty smooth. Here's a photo with a piece of white paper in it, to see how it looks when it goes on wet. It should dry much whiter.

What we need to do now is watch for cracks and dusting to see which mix works best.
