If you decide to feed one of these little brickmakers with truckloads of concrete from a ready-mix plant, two people can supply all the man- or woman-power you’ll really need to operate the machine. (Devilishly clever, these Austin boys!) What the MMI Machine Makes Furthermore, as the Mud Mule is towed along, it automatically rolls out a long strip of plastic for batch after batch of the fresh blocks to cure on. and then lifted high enough to clear a fresh batch of bricks as the machine is moved on to another “squatting” spot. And a single lever on the rear of the frame raises and lowers it so that the gang-mold can be dropped to the ground for filling. The heavy steel frame that is the backbone of the Mold Master is mounted on three wheels.
it automatically fills and levels them off, all at once! And when that hopper is filled with concrete mix (called “mud” in the trade) or real adobe mud and then run across the ganged-up individual molds. A hopper - designed to roll back and forth - is mounted on the same frame. It consists of little more than a many-pocketed wooden mold mounted in a heavy-duty steel frame. The MMI machine is a marvel of simplicity. It’s just right for use in a small, decentralized, but very profitable enterprise.” What is the MMI Machine? As MOTHER staffer Travis Brock puts it, “The Mud Mule strikes me as an ideal example of the kind of intermediate technology so many of us are looking for. It’s easy to see how the non-labor-intensive, uncomplicated, easy to maintain, inexpensive, and fast Mold Master fills the niche so nicely between the traditional extremes of “too laborious” and “too complex”. highly automated, complicated, difficult to maintain, and expensive full-fledged production lines. extremely slow and back-breakingly labor-intensive setups in which wooden molds are loaded from wheelbarrows, leveled off with shovels, and then picked up and moved by hand, or Invariably, however, all the other machines and production methods have fallen into two very different categories: A number of other machines and production methods, in fact, have been devised for the fabrication of such construction materials. Not that MMI’s Mud Mule is the first piece of equipment ever developed for the manufacture of concrete bricks or adobe blocks. Jack had been working in one end or another of the concrete brick and adobe block business for roughly 20 years, and he was well aware of the need within the trade for just such a contrivance. It was Dameron who originally sparked the trio into developing the Mold Master. and it’s already becoming known as “Adobero” (Mud Mule) in Mexico, where the machine is also being marketed. David, however, says that MMI is changing the brickmaker’s name to “Mold Master” in the States. and they’ve been calling their compact 500-pound machine the “Mobile Maker”. Together, the three men are Methods Manufacturing, Inc.
This amazing piece of equipment is the brainchild of Jack Dameron and David and Daniel Dennis, all of Austin. it’s a rather fantastic small business all neatly packaged and mounted on three wheels that, if you like, you might even just hitch up to your car and tow home! The Mobile Maker: Filling A Niche In fact, it’s entirely manually operated! And with the production capacity that it has, this little machine is far more than just a unique combination of steel and wood. And the straightforward apparatus that spewed out all those construction blocks has no motors, no gears, no hydraulic systems, and no other complex hardware. 3,500 3 inch by 3 inch by 9 inch concrete bricks in only 60 minutes.
Weiland recently watched a brand-new, super-simple, DIY brick making machine near Austin, Texas kick out an incredible 3,500 concrete bricks in just one hour! 46 carried a 30-year-old article by Hi Sibley about a do-it-yourself machine that can produce up to 100 concrete blocks an hour. This DIY brick making machine is a low-cost high-production system that will make you money. This DIY brick making machine produces cement bricks using MMI equipment.
