Title: Concrete mixer - sold!
Post by: Varche on 24 February 2026, 09:00:56
Bought it in the UK , 1980. Simple German made standard electric mixer. No on off switch.

Served me well especially here where it regularly ran from dawn to dusk.

New owner is Dutch. I wonder if it will still be working in 2072 !

My dad has a 250L diesel one he inherited from a builder who didn't want to come back and fix some snagging, so left all his tools instead  :o.

I'm not sure how old that one is, but it was made in West Germany, which is definitely an indication. In its 15yrs with us its wanted only for a new set of phosphor bronze bushes. I fully expect to be inheriting that when he passes, and I will warn the lad to expect it when my time comes  ;D
