Haven't tried stainless yet? That will be the real test! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Be prepared to modify this thing to fit your lathe *by M***G on September 22, 2025* Takes a little modification for it to work flawlessly, but it’s worth it ### ⭐ No scale included as shown, tool design and quality could be better. *by D***P on November 10, 2021* First issue I had was that this is not the one in the photo, and it did NOT have the scales it claimed, so I bought a metal ruler from HF and will rivet it in and make a pointer (this will probably be better than what's on the photo anyway). I have a job to do and can't wait for a return or refund. I dont like the way the handle attaches, it forces me to have the cutting tool on the back side of the work, but this is something a welder can fix. And last but not least, the pivot action is rough, but not terrible. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ball Turning Attachment For Lathe-Turns Round Convex Metal-Sphere Radius ball turning - 7 Pieces Center Drill Bits Set, M2 High Speed Steel 60-Degree Angle Center Drill Bits Kit Countersink Tools for Lathe Metalworking Size 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 4.0 5.0 - Indexable Lathe Turning Tool 21Pcs Kit 3/8'' 10mm Shank 7Pcs Metal Lathe Tools Holder Set with 14Pcs Turning Inserts for Turning Grooving Threading Boring Carbide Inserts Carbide Turning Tool --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/72148658-ball-turning-attachment-for-lathe-turns-round-convex-metal-sphere](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/72148658-ball-turning-attachment-for-lathe-turns-round-convex-metal-sphere) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
