    Just a quick video to get me back into the swing of things and also to help show that mixers can be cleaned after neglect. Jay

    Good to see a video Jay. Great job on the mixer. I did it once myself with my dads old mixer. Messy AF. There was no pressure washer just a garden hose and a stiff old brush.

      @@JaysFabShop you did fine Jay, as I suspect you usually do I am sitting here passing out trick or treat goodies as the little goblins stop by and saw your subscription notice. The wife takes over for me soon. We take turns.

    Nice job Jay,I have a ww2 shovel that I used to mix concrete but never washed it off when I finished with it,I’ll try brick acid to clean it,thanks for the tip👍

      Thanks Dean. Love it. If you want to use this acid pop over Ill put some in a jar for you

    Stick a bucket of sharp stones, or small brick ends in it with some acid mix and let it run for half an hour.
    Could do with welding up the ring too.

      Thank you. I did think this to be fair but didn’t have anything suitable around me. But when I use it tomorrow I am going to do this after finished.
      Ring again very true. Thinking of just welding it quick or maybe replacing it and making a video on it.

    Some people just throws 3 or 4 shovles full of gravel and let it run a while.With acid besure to netrulize thr acid wirh sodium bicarbonate or it can eat throught thr metal.

    All we use to do is put water in the drum and broken bits of brick or shingle. And just let the mixer run for a bit

    • @JaysFabShop

      Correct mate. But more after you just used it. Doesn’t work so well with hard dried on cement. Needs the acid

    Generally that's called a Concrete mixer. Cement mixers have turning paddles but the drum is stationary.
    The design difference is because concrete has stone in it, which would jam up and destroy the paddles... The solution was to just have the whole drum spin and tumble. A concrete mixer will handle both materials. A mortar/cement mixer will not. Splitting hairs but still.. there is a difference between a cement/motar mixer and a concrete mixer.

    Doesn't the acid corrode metal?

    • @JaysFabShop

      Not really for this job.
      Partly as a lot of the contact is onto the mortar but also it’s only really on for a short period and then washed off.
      My bucket isn’t the best anyway 😝
