OK guys... How do you all mix in the water to your dry sand. Am I right in thinking that a muller is for dry sand mixing? I have been doing it in a plastic ben with a garden hoe, but that is kind of irritating.

Did you make that? What is it? That looks like a great idea.

yea i made it! its just a peice of 1/4 steel rod made into a "u" the prongs are about 2 inches long. its had a new shaft fitted with a stronger one with a square end so it doesnt slip in the chuck. i use a large aluminium (stock pot) to mix in and a metal garbage can. ive done all my mixing with it since i started.its a half inch drill.
