Stick a decent sized stone in your mixer and that acts to squeeze and work your mix. You’ll go through the odd mixer barrel but you’ll save a whole lot of work!
Very interesting and informative video. I use Lime for pointing and rendering up here around the Lake District on Substrates like Slate, walling Stone etc and now having a bit of experience with it, the skill is in the prep and time, it’s a patient skill and is not a one size fits all approach. Gable ends, Church Towers and floors are my usual jobs. Your videos are some of the best I’ve seen on this subject. Thanks.
This is what we've been using in IND for thousands of years, many temples, Forts you'll find still standing after say 1000, 2000 years or more. Cement is just 1000X bad for the environment. Carbon footprint is huge compared to lime mortar. + concrete's life is no where close to Lime's. Enjoyed the video. Lets build more with Lime Mortar again. 👍🏻
I remember when lime wasn't available in fine agregate in bags like today.Actualy it was but it was very expensive.Then people were buying lime in form of stones and they dig hole in ground and put all that stones in it and then pour water on it and it was nasty.Later you have something like white soapy lime and you simply grab out of hole how much you need and mix with sand and you have excellent mortar which last forever.
Bagged NHL is so much easier. I still mix by hand as you’ve more control over getting a consistent mix/colour. Also I add the mixture to water and keep adding and mixing in the bucket until I get the right consistency. Seems to be OK . I’m over half way through repointing a beach cobbled building right on the beach and exposed to North Westerlies. Using NHL 3.5 and a mix of three aggregates from Ty Mawr at Brecon. Been at it for over 15 years on and off and reckon I’ve got another 10-15000 cobbles to go!

Fabulous video- how exciting! Chemistry at work. Our ancestors were so clever- I had no idea you could buy horse hair for lime pointing. I'm renovating an old stone house using 3.5 NHL lime for the main repairs but I suppose the lime putty would be the best sort of lime to point the stones or cover them altogether with a pigment. Thanks.
check out Michael James design, gotta know exactly what you're doing in this particular field, for the buildings' sake and the old-timers whose fabulous work we're supposed to be repairing
Thankyou for this video, I absolutely love using lime, and you have given a perfectly explained insight. I wish I could have had some training from you
Is the red sand a sharp sand in your lime putty mix. I wish to point a brick wall and would prefer a redder mix. If so could you tell me what the sand is and where i can get it from please.
I have just bought a very old stone and lime wall house and really want to keep to traditional building techniques which is lime instead of cement and am trying to gather as much information I can to share with the builders who of course just want to do cement!!!! Your video is super helpful but I have a question.. If I’m mixing my lime from dry powder lime, making it into a putty to then use it with a mix of sand to plaster my wall, I have to cure it for 2y (let it sit in a bucket) or, buy ready made wet putty? Thank you so much.

I like that you take safety precautions seriously.
What a generous, clever, informative and clear well spoken chap…I learnt so much…in such little time…
Great tutorial, a gentleman and skilled tradesman.
Exceptional presentation. I'm renovating my old stone house and found your lecture very very useful. Thank you so much.

We need more of this type of instruction videos. They are invaluable. Thank you
I've learnt a heck of a lot from this. So many mistakes I could have made, esp with the additions of water.
Amazing, thank you. I wish there were more videos like this.

@Remodeling with Robert Crabtree thank you for your post. Can you give us a little more information on your project? Thank you.

Wish I’d seen this before my renovation project! Still, very useful information for the future!
Now I know what NHL 3.5 or NHL 5 stands for! An excellent video, from which I learned a lot even though I've been using lime for a while.
Where is your sweater from ? It’s beautiful
thanks very much for this presentation!

I would do this in a large metal household dustbin with plastic lid- it doesn’t make the mess and much more controlled
Awesome! Had no idea cement started at 45 newton :o. Had no idea about alot of other stuff too :D.
Thanks, very informative. Would rolling this stuff in a high quality plastic bag be much quicker?
I needed to see this as I hope to be tuck pointing someday…

Can you do a demo on hot mix mortar as opposed to dry slake ?
Thankyou for this video,

Nice vedio,what is the best for mortar and plastering lime putty or hydrated lime??and also is it lime plastering waterproof??

hotlime is what you need, check out Michael James Design or Nigel Copsey, try a hotlime wash too
If you add the lime to the water you will get boiling mix but not explosive.
Is the red sand soft?
It's your job now to make a light weight roller mixer that can be filled on site with water in the roller for easy mixing

N dont forget to mention all this knowledge came from india.
Otherwise like ur forefather u will claim it
Nope...Ancient Greeks, Europeans ,Turks and Arabs were using it for thousands of years.
