Got this in last week & tried it out today.


Used in my 18v makita drill & I must admit it worked very good & mixed my Weber spf quickly & to a very good consistency.
Will update over the next few weeks as I use it more.
Thanks to Gary (the apprentice) for arranging this for me..

What's it like to clean. .?
bet you don't do cleaning! Don't have a dog and bark yourself!

 

[Mr Tiler]

how much was that stef? will there be anywhere by me stocking this type of thing useable in a standard 18v?

I cleaned myself when trying to clean it in a green star bucket full of water, it shot water almost 6 feet in the air, I will use a big Bal mixing bucket the next time.
I was very surprised how easy it mixed up the adhesive & how quick it mixed..

Got it as a freebie & told them I would leave feedback when I use it.
As I said I only done the one mix today so need to do a few more to give an honest assessment of it.

Looked on the site . It's £30for 10mm hex and £35 for 14mm.

keep us informed how it lasts please.

I'll stick with my Eibenstocks and paddles.....

I'm constantly trying to minimise hoarding specific tooling. I can see this as being a good tool for a small bathroom if it saves me getting the mixer out, I think anything bigger then my 18v dewalt would be swearing at me! Nice find Stef!

Will do, I was on the website before it got sent to me & I thought it was expensive but on 1st impressions I would spend that on it.
Mixed up very quick..

I tried one of them steff. I didn't like it,couldn't mix lightweight adhesive!!
just spun around in the bucket doing nowt. Sent it rite bak!!
better off with the old metal paddle.

You need to make sure the ends are both splayed out from one another,
It spun round in the bucket with me but as soon as the arms spun out from one another it worked a treat.
Still can't believe how quick it spun up a mix..

 

[Andy Tiler]

The ends were out it didn't drag the adhesive around!
anyway I'm not investing and I'm out...

 

[Andy Allen]

How much..:yikes: I'll stick to my £5 metal paddle..

Just bought a 240v Eibenstock from Refina for £130 that includes delivery and vat....Oh it's also a slow start and comes with a paddle. [MENTION=33272]prceramics[/MENTION]

Out of all the tools you are gonna need, and also a bit of ££ for materials - a mixing paddle is the last thing you're gonna need at the moment..

agreed, my arm and bucket trowel will cope fine for now. but the next 2 tools on my list is a decent level and a mixer

£100 is nothing for a good tool that saves you time and in turn will pay for its self 10 fold
