We had the plaster on the ceiling of our closet repaired today. Mr. Miller, the plasterer, kindly explained part of his process to me. I foolishly had the camera turned sideways, but of course, can’t play the video back that way.

Except, I found this new thing called Scrapblog, which will, in fact, allow sideways videos. There’s no fancy animation in this video, just him talking and plastering. I can embed these scrapblogs, but the video doesn’t work in the embedded version, so I’m afraid you’ll have to trot over to watch the plastering here. The finished job is very smooth, but I don’t have any shots of that.

Oh, don’t click on “Play Slideshow” because there’s only one page. Just click on the video. I find watching the plastering strangely hypnotic. Plus there’s the bonus that you get to hear what my natural, not-in-studio, conversational speaking voice sounds like.
