    tornire una sfera

    Non ho una fresatrice, quindi ho dovuto assemblare e saldare tutti i pezzi.

    re Ball turning jig.......
    I appreciate your project, always interested in tooling related to lathe contour work.
    And this morning, found new thing to appreciate; self explanatory still (great step by step example) photos and shortest ever demonstration video.
    New precedent how to best present a 'build this' post.
    Sincerely,

    ...we'll learn more by wandering than searching...

    There are other uses for a tool of this design...

    With a longer tool extension, the tool can turn concave depressions in a workpiece.

    To turn a true sphere the rotary axis of the tool must intersect the rotational axis of the lathe. By offsetting the tool axis, the tool can be made to turn ogives. Ogives are often the shape of a rocket nose cone. Some arrow points and propeller spinners use the shape as well.

    I discussed an incremental method of turning ogives here...

    How to turn ogives

    You may want to examine that discussion to understand the mathematics of the ogive.
