I've run into a problem with easily re-conditioning my foundry

it's nearly useless for reconditioning.
I'm toying with using a bowling ball in a regular cement mixer with
the vanes removed.
Anybody here have some actual experience????
Replacing the exact right amount of water after a pour seems more of
an art than a science...
So far I'm an expert on too much or too little... just right remains
elusive...

Which carver do you have ? There are plans out there for a blade type made
from an old propane tank , which I intend to build when I have both time and
inclination .
