NAH , that would not have worked here in this old house . NOTHING i mean nothing i have ever seen on them shows came even close . Home was built in 1892 and what i found under the horse hair plaster was nothing like i have ever seen before and none of my buddys that bend nails for a living had ever seen before either .
