Question:

Can I add wall studs to the outside of my house to increase wall thickness?

I thought I saw a picture where studs were added to the outside of a houseThere was a board attached at the bottom as a bottom plateStuds went from that board all the to the eavesI would rather do this to the outside than lose the space insideI would then insulate, sheath, and side the studsI currently have aluminum sidingShould I remove everything outside down to the studs?

Answer:

everything shrinks being cooked, fish is more visible
Water loss, same as for American Ham plus injected water stuff from shady supermarketsSmoked fish and smoked hams are better.
The water in them evaporates, leaving the fish with less fluid, causing the fish then, to shrink.
You could do it, but most people would add a brick skin rather than what you proposeIn any case you'd have to have deep external reveals for the widows doorsI'd leave the aluminum siding there (for extra installation) and I would add another stud wall, if that's what you really wantBut I'd rather fix battens to the stud walls under the cladding then use thick siding (1 or 25mm)This would save you time and money of building another stud wall, even though the thicker siding would cost you more.
