I put balls from the craft store on the end of EMT for some shop-made tool

just screw the ball onto the end of the shaft. I didn't use any glue.

You need at least a drill press, or better a lathe, to drill a sphere
straight and true.

If you were to drill a larger hole to receive the whole EMT tube into the
ball, you'd weaken the ball.


That should work. thanks!
