Hi folks, First, thanks for the replies on waterproofing the bathroom. I am actually attracted to the idea of the paint from holland of which I should recieve a sample soon. The linseed oil idea sounds good too, but I understand that is only makes the plaster water-resistent, and I am talking about direct contact with water (in a homemade shower stall), so I need a water-proof solution. . .. If I go with the tiles I will let you know, Barbara.
so here´s my new lo-tech question:
There are some gaps created by carpentry that i want to insulate before covering. Most of these will be filled with loose straw, but in some areas it would by hard to use straw because it will fall out. I had thought of using wadded up newspaper to fill in these difficult spots. Any comments on that idea? I remember someone in the Austria reunion talking about the uses of newspaper, but who?
thanks, Rikki
