Old plaster walls can provide challenges when locating wall studs. We show 2 options to finding studs in a very old house.
1) Neodymium Magnets

2) Zircon Stud Finder

This old house renovation that we are taking on will leave some of the interior walls in tact. Being able to find where the studs are located is of course a big help.
You could use a super simple method of rare earth magnets or neodymium magnets to find nils below the surface of the plaster and lath. But this method, though inexpensive, requires a bit of patience and even then you may get mixed results.
The second and more reliable method is to buy a stud finder with deep scan capability.
We are using a Zircon stud finder with the ability to scan through 1.5 inches of wall material. This stud finder makes the process much easier and with more consistent results.
Thanks for watching!
