In this video I show the method I mostly use for turning spheres.
If you have watched my channel for a while you will know I have turned quite a lot of spheres. For a long time I used the cup chuck method where you hold the blank between two cups and rotate it 180 degrees in between passes. This method works fine but I always found I was taking extra passes to get the perfect sphere resulting in the sphere being smaller than I intended, so I now find it easier to use a couple of ply templates as shown in this video...
