"hutchndi" - Stone Wall Question - I am working on the outside foundation of my old house and I have put up steel lathe and a scratch coat, and instead of using stucco to finish it off, I am thinking of using stone that I have available to me to create a stone wall foundation, a sort of field stone I guess but I can split it with not too much effort (layered, some kind of shale?) to around an inch or so.
