SPHERE MACHINE<br />
IT MAKES ROUND BALLS FROM ALMOST ROUND BALLS<br />
A sphere machine assures a perfect sphere every time which would be difficult by hand.<br />
This one, owned by Tim <strong>Mid</strong>dleton, requires hand applied grit while it is working. Some<br />
machines use three heads (and motors) and may include a continuous grit drip system. It<br />
requires a high degree of faith to trust these machines to do a perfect job without human<br />
attention.<br />
