The final layer was made from the same mix as the arch core, but with the addition of straw. The final layer went pretty quick. It was only 1 - 1 1/2 inches thick. More like a thick plaster. Plus with the straw in it, it seemed OK to put it on a little wetter.
Once it dried a bit, we smoothed it out by rubbing it with a board. Now we just have to let it dry a bit, put some fires in it to burn out the forms, let it dry some more... and soon we'll be baking great bread.
