I make an ''8 Ball'' out of solid Stainless Steel and Brass

I had this idea since I recently discovered how to easily make balls on the milling machine and lathe. As I currently don't know what to restore next, I decided to make the 8 ball. It was a very cool little project. Very accurate work was needed to get all six individual pieces fit together with no gaps. The hardest part of this project was filming the last few shots, because it is so super shiny now and reflects everything. I really like how it turned out and it will be a nice decoration piece to look at.
I hope you like my work and the video.

I don't think he gets enough credit for the quality of these vids!

Just making the 8 logo was intricate enough, let alone the whole ball.

New ball or new pocket? Screw it, I'll just go ahead and say "both."

Anyone else just watch him make the stand for it on his other channel and then had to come back over here to rewatch this? Just amazing work.

Just sitting on a table people will see it and say “that’s a cool 8 ball” but knowing the process behind it makes it pretty damn amazing. 👍

My father used to be a mechanical engineer, for many years he used a lathe, but could operate (make a living) from all machine shop equipment, as a child didn’t appreciate the skill involved.

As a long time woodworker I've always admired craftsmanship in any form. Taking a collection of raw materials and turning them into art is a skill that few have and you sir have some brilliant skills. Kudos to you and keep exploring your creativity and art!! Peace.

Wow...I am utterly stunned by this. The skill displayed here is unsurpassed, and not only that I think everyone who watches this wants one of these balls now! 🤣 Truly spectacular stuff 👍

I wish this would have started with a chipped 8-ball and "This billiard ball breaks too easily. I make a new one." 😂

Yeah or a missing 8 in a set...
