    Finally got the ball turner to where I could test it out today. ground up a 3/16 square cobalt tool bit and it did good adjusted the radius and relief angles and its very good.

    has 2 oil lite bearings with an oil cup on each to lube them 2 oil lite thrust bearings to set end play and tension. Small space between bearings for an oil supply.I need to cut a 3/8" hex in the shank for the handle yet, and make 2 stops to set in the groove so it cant over run.

    I found that turning a ball with the mill is easy. https://johntaylormachine.com/wp-con..._Machining.jpg
