[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 438906, member: 21536"] My daughter asked if I would install recessed lighting in her house. It has wood lath & plaster ceilings. I have a fair amount of experience installing retrofit cans in drywall ceilings, but never in lath & plaster. From the research I've done I suppose I will need to cut through the plaster layers with a masonry hole saw then through the wood lath with something else (I'm thinking multi-tool). From what I've read it sounds like I will be lucky to get clean holes without cracking the ceiling. I got to thinking there could be folks on TinBoats that might have some pointers on doing this. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Larry [/QUOTE]
