Yes - last time I used it was for my Victorian conservatory which I'd
re-built as close to original as possible. It's a lean to and the bricks
weren't rendered, so no way of concealing cables. It's very satisfying to
make a neat job. Found it difficult to get the bits, though - I was using
2L1 bare.
