A wooden ball that goes on the side of the Jet Pack's thruster things!

Nice job! I may just put a few balls in the laser

Nice work man. I've not been looking forward to doing these. I'll probably go the same route you have though.

Nice job..... Dremel or CNC ?

You guys doing these scratch built jet packs have given me an idea.....make an oversized one an use it for a computer case.

Excellent work,

A little Dremel...a little drill press...a little sandpaper...a lot of handcarving!!!

The little slots are hand carved as well as the depressions on the edges of the ball. Still a lot of work to do.

I plan on just doing one of these and then making a mold of it because I can't really stomach the thought of carving another one!

When I get to this stage, Imma use a wax ball and make a mold of that, is there the same detail on both sides of the ball?

From what I can tell by sifting through the picture archive it looks like its on just one side.
