Must have tool for Xmas

Aye , and a bit of string threaded through the lathe to keep it tight.

Saxton do a Jab Saw multitool blade. It's great on drywall, not sure about lath & plaster, but if using a pad saw before then it should be fine

i usually prize the lath with a large metal flathead and remove with a wood blade but its getting a bit time consuming scoring round the plaster, then chapping the outline with a flathead to remove the laster, and were only half way there
