For what it's worth, I paid $14 each for 12-inch-diameter stainless
bowls from Ikea that I plan to weld into a sphere... um, sorry, to be
absolutely accurate, it'd be an oblate sphereoid with 3" diameter
flattened poles, for you mathematical ANALysts... so, about $30 with
tax for a foot-(major)diameter sphere(oid).
Hi Thomas:
They sell garden ornaments called Gazing Balls, they are made of
stainless steel. They have no recognizable seam and a mirror finish.
They are resonably inexpensive,and come in many sizes (save yourself a
lot of work).
