Discuss Lathe & plaster walls in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

just to educate some of the previous posters. lathe is what metal workers turn metal on. lath is what builders used to build internal walls with.
 
why not just use MK flange boxes, fitted hundreds of them with out a problem using 1" 1/2 6's. Cut the plaster out with a stanley knife then carefully cut the lath out.
i cut out both with a fein multitool.
