CHINESE BALL

Made of walnut wood, it is a piece created from an approximately 60 mm ball on which 12 equidistant points are marked that subsequently open a window and separate the rest of the balls, finally leaving seven balls, one inside the other and turning on themselves. Many people believe that the balls are cut to insert another ball, this is not the case, the ball is made in a single piece.
Hello Bob, my partner did not give my tools to me, but I can send some documentation on this topic by private email since I have tool plans if you want to make them for yourself.

Thanks, I have made a few . I got some tools from a fellow in Oklahoma, but he has passed away. My email is rfbrown@cox.net . Good turning to you. Bob
