How to make a ball?

[howboring]

Hi Guys!

 

I've tried a few tutorials on making a round ball but am not succeeding

 

I make a line, lathe it. Then go to top view and rotate it so it lies on one of the axis. Then I delete the left side and the center line so it's a half circle. Then I get stuck

 

Anyone know a easy way of making a round ball?

 

Thanks

Create a new, blank model... right-click in the model window and select plug-ins->wizards->Primitive and set the primitive for a sphere. Then you just set your parameters and hit 'create'... and viola, a sphere of your specifications.

 

You will be hard pressed to get a TRUE sphere in A:M, but often it's not necessary to get a perfectly true sphere.

Thanks!! That sounds like exactly what I needed!

 

Oh I'm so happy now
