Making a Steinmetz Solid on a Lathe

Описание к видео Making a Steinmetz Solid on a Lathe

Here comes a short video on making a Steinmetz solid on a lathe. A few months ago I made a video about turning a special cube on the lathe and in the comments there was a hint on the Steinmetz solid.
I never heard of this shape before but it is a very cool and satisfying to watch shape and it's doable to make this shape on a lathe. You just have to make little fixtures to hold it during turning.
The shape seems to be very sensitive to even little imperfections in the runout during machining. So my Steinmetz solid turned out to be perfect with perfectly sharp intersecting tips but I thought about sharing this idea of a simple little cool looking project nontheless.

I hope you enjoyed this little episode.
Feel free to comment and let me hear your thoughts and suggestions.
