It is just over 1100 grams. It was purposefully made that way for my friend who is chainsaw carver and uses traditional carving for those tricky bits where the chainsaw or grinder would be no good. As I got hold of another ball yesterday which was already partially cut, I will make smaller...

And here is the final product.

The second plug is out. Used the same method as before. There was a bit od the glue on the bottom of the plug where the small drill hole is. It is definately no hide glue. When I tried to clean it off it was not completely hard and britle. I am thinking more some of the glues leatherworkers used...

Ok found it. Have to say heated the ball that it was sweating but glue would not give at all. Tried to scratch around the plug with needle and scalpel to loosen it but still no go. As my future design allows it I carved the wood away around the plug rigt to the top of the decorative part about...

What you will need is dependent on the chuck or face plae you have. Some of them coming already in that size or if you have any other you need to have insert from 3/4x16 to the thread which is on your chuck/face plate. If it is for turning between points you need to know if it is MT1 or MT2 or...

The Twister is the only one which so far I had chance to physically see working when I did my course in Simon Hope's workshop. Looks to the eyes of begginer great the same could be said about his Midi Pro which i forgot to mention at the beginning of this thread. For these I was looking more for...
