      My dad often said the same and he had a very dim view of people who call themselves "experts": "An ex is a has-been and a spurt is a drip under pressure" he'd say with derision. He was an aircraft engineer: what an auto mechanic is to vehicles, but a damned sight more responsible - because there's nowhere to pull off the road if anything goes wrong with your "aerie" whilst you're flying.

    i mixed some last year, was doing fence posts. i had a friend helping me but the way we mixed was by using a 2m x 2m tarp. put all your dry mix in the middle, make a hole in the middle of the mix, pour in water then each grab a corner of the tarp. take it in turns to lift a corner doing the opposite one each time. mixes it well and then you can carry it over to the hole, both still holding it you can pour it straight off the tarp in to the hole. worked like a charm!

    Just to let you know, that specific mask is not recommended to be used for respirable crystalline silica. It states this on the website. A better mask to use would be an N-95 respirator or half face respirator with N-95 or higher filtering protection.

    But no, seriously, buy a mud mixing drill and some buckets.
    Water first. 3/4 of the bag. Mix soupy. Add rest of the bag.
    Don't fog up your workload.

    Therein lies the problem, most blokes don't read the instructions lol.
    A good tip for concrete to test if it's good once you've mixed it is to pick some up with a trowel and turn it upside down, if the concrete stays stuck to the trowel it's good, if it falls off it's either too wet or too dry which is easy to tell the difference.

    • @diyforknuckleheads

    No many people read the instructions! My 6th grade teacher had a banner at the front of the classrooom: "When all else fails, read the instruction". Unfortunately, a lot of instructions are so poorly written and illustrated they are next to useless!

    One of the most important steps is not mentioned. The cleaning of your tools afterwards.
