Woods used are Apple, Cherry, Walnut, Yellowheart, Redheart, Tulipwood, Maple and Bloodwood. The balls are all connected with purpleheart dowels.
David,
You've definitely gone bananas!! I like it!

Have you threaded the spheres through a bent rod?

Do you have a high resolution image of this for possible use in the journal?

I'm glad you like it Mrs. Scarpino.
All the balls are connected to each other by 1/2in wooden dowels. The smaller balls are 1/4in dowels.
This is the best picture I have of this piece and it wouldn't help to take another one. I was in a rush and did a horrible job of putting the finish on, so it doesn't look very good any more.
