Good evening people.
I'm in the process of plastering a water well in someone's front room . To be honest it looks pretty cool . I've just primed it today & going to top it tomorrow . Has anyone rubbed up thin coat on an internal radius before ? Ive made myself a curved float from a thin piece of plastic & attached to an old trowel handle . Any thoughts??? Thanks

Upload some pics... I would be interested to see how that looks... never heard of a water well in a front room before
 
Hi people . Thanks for your interest & input , its appreciated (y).
I didn't end up doing it today ( wimped -out ) got caught up with other jobs .
Defo doing it tomorrow morning so I will take some pics and upload after work . Thanks again
 
i have seen internal well before built up and finished with a glass table top . all lite up on the sides of the well.
you will need to sleep for 1 night with your arm wrapped around a piss pot to give you correct swing with the trowel !
 
. Good shout mate . Sounds very similar ,glass top & colour changing lights. Was the one you saw plastered ?

Did an extension knock down , adjoining chimney wall out to have one big kitchen diner , posh customers , wanted to put in underground wine cooler ( didn't go for it ) , have you seen the prices they charge for retro fit , makes you wonder if normal building projects are worth the hassle to earn a living

Sounds great any pics , this didn't have the room for much , shame though wanted it sunk below table as we'd dug floor out for new foundations and pipework would only have cost a few hundred , it's always my overenthusiastic approach that puts them off , my missus says I do it on purpose lol , on line quotes of £3k for retro fit , to store a couple of crates ffs

I'll ask the builder to send me a photo I was doing the rendering so only has a nose at it I think they said it holds 1000 bottles

Gotta laugh at some customers taste and disproportionate sense of value , we did upstairs bathroom for the same customer the year before , tiled floor , claw foot bath , the bloke raves his Italian sense of style and design , plaster work done with mm perfect tramlines , no wall tiles and paid for imported Italian wallpaper and flew a bloke over to stick it up , looked s**t

we have recently been on a similar job.
all in face brickwork. a spiral staircase that turned into a tunnel ceiling to a wine cellar . the bricklayer had to cut every brick in half to form the shape. he won an architect award for the craftsmanship.
