While we're on the subject does anyone know a good way of getting bonding build up off the sides? Once that s**t starts to gather it can kill a bucket because every mix start to set where it touches on the bonding. Especially bonding on bonding. If yanno what I mean

Put them in a water butt let them soak over a weekend my mixing buckets go in the water butt everynight

If you have a boy then just use smaller buckets and let him knock an up 1 by 1, he could load it on the board alone too.


Second thing is how big is your board? I know mine's a bit small but anything more then a bag and a bit gypsum/ 1 barrow load sand cement just don't fit.

Agree completely the collomix are deffinatly better as gauging buckets Gary (y) well apart that 85 quid whisk cleaning one that collomix do.
@Vincey :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

I only normally just use them for clean water and not for mixing unless I only want a little bit.

I do seem to have a slight problem with with buckets though. I might need help mate.
