You should try it Q, it's easier than it sounds. Less messy than a blender and less straining on the arm than using a whisk (which then also has to have all of it's mayo laden tines scraped clean)

See here: Aoili made in a pestle and mortar

The chef is using a light wooden pestle which isn't fit for purpose, it should have weight (teracotta or porcelain) so you can work the emulsion and pour at the same time.
