    paper clay home made mixer

    this tools are used for making paper clay from trimming scrap clay. The clay trimmings are dried and stored until ready to mix. They are slaked in water overnight. I fill the mixer about 1/2 way. The dried paper pulp balls are soaked overnight, and added to the solution. The mix is dried onto plaster slabs and used or dried until needed. Drying the slabs prevents it from molding.

    The pulp is drain on fiberglass window screen stretched onto a frame.These balls can be dried out and saved until needed.

    You can see the blades of the shaft. The motor assembly slides into the the upright tube mounted on a stand
