Ive had some friends that used a mortar mixer, they said that it works but if
theres larger rocks in your clay the mixer might catch and give you a mighty
jerk so be ready. Make sure you get insurance on your mixer they experienced
some hefty dents from stubborn rocks. If its a time and manpower thing go for
the mixer but if you can dance your walls into creation dance
on.............................
