Globe Maker DELUXE
-
This fellow used to build custom wooden interiors for private jets. He does this now as a hobby. The workshop, ADX (http://www.adxportland.com/) was the place where the last Portland SketchUp user group met.
Dave R. ... are you impressed?

Somehow he takes flat pieces of wood (which consist of many smaller sub-pieces) and attaches them to others and grinds to match the globe's diameter. No special jigs other than the two braces at the bottom on which the globe rests.

That's gorgeous.

Uh. Yes. That is pretty cool. Those are beautiful pieces.
Thanks for sharing that.
