i made my first spheres using a hole saw, which leaves the center piece. then i used a paddle bit to remove the middle. this usually resulted in some material left, so i used a dremel with a cutting disc. finally, i used a dremel with a sanding wheel to perfect the opening diameter. then i had to fill the hole in the rear of the sphere created by the pilot bit on the hole saw. i used a wood plug which was then sanded smooth.
then i bought a forstner bit set. so yea, fvck the old way.
i use double-sided foam tape in the vice to increase grip while allowing for less clamping force. i don't have issues with the vice squeezing the sphere this way.
