@Jim_Scan said in pouring floor: in sections? Dry sticking to wet?:
Traveler, I too have been mixing in a 50gal drum with the hand mixer and found it a lot of work for my 67year old body. What I found was that, for me, the hardest part was getting a thorough mixing of the cement and water only, to be the most demanding. It was hard to get all the cement mixed into the 'slurry', with no or little residue/paste on the bottom of the barrel after I poured it out. (especially since I was doing this myself) What I was thinking, was that mixing the cement in a barrel mixer, assuring that it was well mixed, then pouring that slurry into my 50-gallon drum and adding the foam at that point. I'm new to this and have only done a few test batches, but my first test batches raised concerns with me since in the future I want to add sand 1:1 for a slab and can only imagine it getting more difficult. I guess the next best thing would be to find a 'younger' helper 🙂 Your thoughts would be welcome.
Aloha,
Jim
