Thanks everyone!

yes, but in this image is some home made cups using what I believe is high pressure pipe. I am grinding with grit.
I have a mishmash of accessories. I'll get it all sorted out over time with the various sizes needed to accomplish the goal.
Thanks for the comment!

Rig is looking good Scott. I just ordered longer rails for my machine so I can cut larger spheres. Hope to have mine finally finished and running in the next couple of weeks. Too many irons in the fire, and playing nurse for a wife who just had surgery kinda slowed things down.

Well, she's out of bed and doing a few things. Be glad when she can take over the house again. Grass is almost 2' tall in some places. I need to be outside mowing instead of washing dishes, laundry and cooking meals.
