Rattle.. my question is what size of stone would be the best to work with when sphering.. or is there a limit. I have several stones that I feel something like your sphering would fit the bill and apporx how much would it could to do a sphere about the 3 or 4 inches in diameter.

I guess it would depend on your equipment. I've done spheres as large as 6 inches in diameter. I don't think I'd wanna go any bigger. But I've got a small saw and my large sphere machine needs new motors so I'm only doing around 2-3 inches at the moment. I'm not taking on any custom work though as i try to keep it a hobby and only sell to pay for equipment. I'm hoping to upgrade in the next year or so and may entertain custom work then once I'm fully equipped.

Just curious how does the random number draw work if multiple people chose the same number?

Limiting it to the first 100 entries seems strange to me but yes your point is valid I should have read the rules and searched for one of the 100 numbers that were still available... |

Limiting just makes it easier on me to manage should it get a lot of interest. But prior giveaways only drew about 60 people and this one a few less.
