Hiya, I'm in the process of building an adobe courtyard wall at my house. I intend to have it stucco'ed when it's complete. I do 99% of all the work at my house myself (I didn't pump the septic system myself or it would have been 100% :) ). Initially I thought about hiring someone to do the stucco work as I've never worked with it before. But then as I continue on with the wall, I'm beginning to think about doing it myself to save a bit of $$. I have a high respect for plasterer's as I have never managed to get the hang of plastering. To me, it seems like a real art. Am I crazy to consider this? I would be going with the standard 3 coat application (scratch, brown, finish) if that means anything. Just curious. Cheers, cc
