I totally agree, otherwise to many stylus or bearings needed.

I did think of flipping the pattern over so as to make a planing cut on the
first part of the ball. instead of chopping into end grain, makes for a
much smoother finish
However it means a lot of setting up and more so with
Sure they should in a perfect world. I have only one stylus and many
sizes of bits, It's good to know what to do about it when they don't match.

Thanks Mike for the explanation.
Today I put a piece of ash in the chuck --same dia. template in the same
place as the forsythia and it came out a smaller size, maybe the wood
pulls the cutter towards it.
The cutter is on the side nearest the leadscrew and the rotation of the
spindle is
One thing I do when figuring out the path is to draw the ball on a piece
of paper, then draw the follower then draw the bit diameter centered on
the follower. If there is a smaller bit than your follower, the
follower's center will be farther away from the radius path need to
accomplish the
Well I have just about cracked it,, should have had the template a little
nearer to the chuck. Then the end of the ball would not have been flat
The wood I used was a bit of forsythia out of my garden. The cutter 1/2

instead of using a template, have you tried to using just a round over bit on
this spindle? If you cut one edge with a round over bit, then just move the
carriage over to make your second cut, if you do things right, you should have
a pretty close to perfect ball, with just a nub to

Would your set up be able to cut a complete round ball 1.5 inches dia without
removing the stock from the chuck . How do you find the smaller Tritons are
they as well equipped as the TRA 001 ??

I have not tried making balls on the Legacy, but I have done them on the Lathe.
perhaps the same method would work for the Legacy?
