paddles

just wondering what size paddle's your using. cheers

i use the 8" refina spiral paddle .....its nice all round and youll thank yourself when youre using hardwall ....ive used the latest 1800 watt drill with a 6" padldle and even though it goes like fook still takes longer to make a mix ready .......but were talking a minute ..........

my mixer 1100 watt do u think 8 inch paddle will be to much pressure on it.

 

[nicksey1401]

no i doubt it mate ....it depends what youre mixing if youre doing loads of hardwall it might struggle eventually

na dont use much hardwall...... just multi. what mixer u got nicksey

 

[nicksey1401]

the 1700 watt refina one ...what have you got?

ha ha......... i got the one from B&Q ;D
i bought it becacuse its got 3 year warranty
in 3 years ill probably get a mega mixer...... have a mix done in under a minute ;D

i shelled out for it years ago, i was a lab at the time and i had the bosses drill and matey had his car burned and stealed ....which ever way ill never know : so i shelled out for my own and had to pay the boss back from some price work he gave me ........you pay 490 but you get 100 quids worth of tools with it ......that was 6 years ago and hasnt missed a beat ive serviced it once .....
youre drill sounds sound mate as long as it mixes the gear who gives a fook .......the 8" inch paddle is forty quid so you could try it and if it burns out buy another............annual service cost on the refina drill is approx 90 quid .......

I got the mm22 but i added the 6in paddle works a treat Its almost the same deal but you get £80 worth of free tools and i think its only 280 and 360 with vat. had it for 5 years and had the brushes replaced earlier this year which cost 25 with a service.
