In this final video, I add clay to the mixer for the first time. It didn't take long to find a couple problems, but nothing that couldn't be fixed.
The soft clay that comes out of this machine is unlike any bagged clay I have thrown with. It is so much easier to move around bigger amounts of clay on the wheel. Slap down a 15+ ball of clay, push it around, and if it flops, it just goes right back in the pug mill.
Overall, I enjoyed the challenge and the process of this build, and of course the resulting machine. I hope you did too.
