Almost ALL standard concrete mixers, including the big concrete trucks,
are inappropriate for mixing papercrete.
You MUST have some method of mulching up the paper into a fine pulp.
Concrete mixers tend to fold the ingredents together. The paper will
tend to just tumble around.
That is why you see most designs for a papercrete mixer to have some
kind of a spinning blade.
To use Kitchen Appliances as an example, think Blender, not a
Kitchenaid stand mixer. We've got chopping, blending, grinding, and
pure'eing to do, not just mixing!
