very interesting ... i have made a similar one, but i have incorporated the use of a small index and a boring head...LOL but this set up is better if ya have time to fab the parts.. i like, nice job, i have a Question tho...
do u have a print of that tap/die holder for your tailstock??
how do you set this up? do u have a measuring system on the turning table and align the center of the turning table with the Z-axis?(considering that the distance betwwen the center of the table and the tip of the carbit, equals the radius of the ball) or is it with trial and error?

@TheAllimania I'm struggling to see how in any way a spinning steel ball could be ironic?

@electrogear not dangarous...its just a pice of metal spinning at ~ 800 rpm
this is not ironic...

Is it not a bit dangerous to hold it like that whilst it's rotating? Could it not end up in limbs being turn off??
