Did the same earlier this year and it creates an enormous amount of mess
and I wished I'd just boarded over the top of the lathe and plaster.

I am well aware of the mess as have done it before, but I intend to seal the
room off as well as poss and the room is empty. The results are worth it. I
also love getting dirty and wrecking things!!
