very cool, if you make a larger one with a 4 or 5 in pipe and have to hook up to a pto on a tractor you'll be able to sell tons of them.

@@WeberMachineWorks if you do go that route id call the local concrete plant and see if they sell dry premix because bagged wont be able to keep up.

@@jhippl Another great idea. I will make that call and see about that. I was thinking of making my own machine that precisely fed all the raw materials into a premixer machine that fed into the mixing machine. Thanks

good job! your build and the mud mixer videos out there make me wonder if other configurations might have advantages. the hopper to the auger seems sensitive to rock sizes and maybe some binding from freak slivers of stone or whatever. seems like a good opportunity for somebody to build a better mousetrap. maybe some type of hybrid between the auger/hopper system and a traditional rotating barrel might work. the continuous feed aspect of the mud mixer is pretty great.
@WeberMachineWorksАй бұрын
Thanks.I have been think of some other configurations.I have a grate right above the auger to prevent and rocks or chunks that are too big from entering the auger and so far it has been reliable.It is a better mouse trap compared to the drum mixer.I used it today to pour some piers for my deck i am building.After I was done I was like I cant believe how good and fast and consistent this thing works.I don't see myself using the drum mixer much anymore.Always room for improvement though.Your hybrid idea is interesting,it sure has me thinking. Thanks again.

@@WeberMachineWorks I might give it a try myself. I was imagining the hopper vibration feeding onto a chute to a large diameter pipe with paddles where the water and concrete mix would happen then feed to a chute.... But all that gets more complicated than the auger. The auger has a lot of advantages in terms of simplicity--since you added the screen you eliminated much of the potential for jams. it's inspiring to see other people put their ideas into action and actually use it--whoever mentioned the PTO drive concept was onto something too. Anyway, thanks for the cool videos.

@@KevinKimmich44024 Yeah the auger is simple and effective.I made a video show how to make an auger.And yeah i am going to work on a PTO drive one,I think that is a great idea from one of my viewers.For a bigger higher out put machine.Thanks I will keep them coming.

Nice. I think a bigger one would be great for 2+ people but the original mud mixer was likely designed to be able to use with just one person thus the 3" output but I think cuz your auger is an inch smaller than the pipe its not pushing enough volume so maybe try to increase the auger size just below 3" and see how the output is first & also maybe widen the intake in the bin. The oem mud mixer mixes pretty fast for one person in my opinion from watching videos. Anyways GL on your next build.

If you are looking for convenience - order cement truck If you are looking for low cost - get your cement and aggregates and use cement mixer or for smaller projects mix it by hand! But of you looking for YT content - build ready-mix-mixer out of junk :D
@WeberMachineWorks5 ай бұрын
Sure I would also say to order a cement truck when ever possible,but when you cant for what ever reason this is another option if you don't want to deal with mixing and measuring the separate ingredients .This was a test to see if I could make this type of cement mixer with what I had laying around .Next one will be scaled up .

I dont think you really need that midevil spike hand poker there.. just a little wavy thin piece of metal will cut a bag in two. Maybe 2 spikes at most.. i could forsee the loader getting a little winded and drop a mitt on it and have a bad day..
@WeberMachineWorks2 ай бұрын
Thanks, I appreciate your input.I tried a semi sharpened thin wavy piece and had to wrestle with the bag a little most of the time.I didn't want to wrestle any with the bag especially when you start getting tired.Maybe I went a little too aggressive,but man did it solve that problem. Perforating the bag just right is the key. Medieval spikes,I hadn't thought of that. That is going to crack me up for a while. Good one.😃
