Where can I get a small cement mixer? Its a space thing. I have seen cheap
ones at Lowes ($127) but they still take up a lot of room. I do brick
pointing and only want to mix up about a gallon at a time. Any ideas? Mixing
in a bucket is a pain.

They suck. By all reports they're really just no good.

I have seen people using drill mounted mixers in small buckets for small
amounts of mortar mixing. I'd go that route if you don't want to mix by
hand.

Rent one.
Or for such a small amount, use a mixing tub from a tile shop. $10.

When I need a little bit of mortar I use a white bucket and a drill
mixer. You do need a good 1/2" drill motor.
It is fast and does a good job.
