What kind of materials are you looking for. I have a few five gallon buckets full of different varieties.

I just gotta get a sphere machine! Pretty much all I want to do anymore -rock wise- is make (large) spheres. What do you figure Scott - 2500 for a good machine and another 1000 for a decent starter set of cups? High on my list once things settled down around here. Fall/winter project. Gotta get a super grinder built sooner than later too.

Gotta get a super grinder built sooner than later too. Sounds about right with new stuff from HP in Texas. Feel free to ask specific questions when they come up if you go down this path. I haven't shopped new very much so YMMV

To start target a size of ball you want. Say 5" then just buy accessories for that size ball.
3" or 4" cups

You think the HP unit is superior to the 3 head Covington?

The Covington is a better quality machine, at 3x the price of the HP model it better be. They will both produce the equivalent quality sphere. I already own three machines, if I was in the market for another and I did not want to build it, I would by the HP.
