Turning spheres
Doug
Really good tool idea. Did you patent it?

I use a piece of black iron pipe slightly smaller than the sphere about 12"
long. put the end of the pipe on your grinder and form a burr.
After you rough out the sphere with a gouge, place the pipe on the tool rest
and swivel back and forth with LIGHT pressure until you have a perfect sphere.
Very little sanding required to ginish off.
What toys do you make? I make and sell a number of toys.
