Hi All I am at a loss to understand why, when I try to turn balls from some pine to go with some kids skittles I have made, they come out looking like rugby balls instead of spherical shape. The wood is 1 1/2 dia. and is held in a chuck,--- router cutter is 1/2 inch dia. the stylus on the end of the router carriage is 1/8 inch dia I use a metal washer /plate of the same dia. as the wood as a pattern . The ball as I have said before comes off oval in shape it parts of very easily, I do the end of the wood first then travel back to the washer to do the other side of the ball, it just drops off into the sawdust, which was a surprise Do I need a larger plate washer or what do you recommend I do is there a magic formula for the diameters of the cutter plate and stylus ???????
