Ball turner for metal lathe.

[aametalmaster]

The plans said that it would turn a 3" steel ball so i had to try it. Yup and i can go bigger than that. Works great for a radius cutter also. I made it on my SBL from common steel parts i had laying around. If anyone needs the plans just hollar...Bob

To the guys the emailed me for the BT plans Thank You. I refered everyone to my yahoo group where i have all of my great projects stashed. That prob wasn't the thing to do since some people don't like the yahoo groups. So i will figure out another public place to stash the large anounts of files that i have and post a link to them...Bob
