I live in a 1930s house. The walls are covered in old plaster which may
need
to be hacked off prior to replastering. Thing is I don't know if this is
the
case hence the post to this newsgroup asking if anybody knows of any
good
websites or books on how to plaster.

I've always used this as a reference - can't remember where it came from
(probably this group) but thanks to Patrick:

Thesis on Plastering - oh Boy!

Jim, and anyone else who feels it necessary to attempt plastering, please
read on:

I started my life as an electrician and have been in the building
industry for a long time, graduating to running my own house building
company, so I've probably seen it all and done most of it. These days
I renovate houses for a hobby and, apart from carpet fitting and
plastering, I do it all myself.
