[TheForge] Cast Iron Balls

[Peter Hirst]

No joke, I have a project that involves them.  I have been commissioned to make a line of colonial bridge arm lamps.  I can fabricate or source all the parts I need excpet one troublesome little rascal.  It is a cast iron ball about 3" OD, tapped for say 1/4 20F or 1/4 IP.  I have posted a picture in the album titled "Lamp Parts" at the photo access site. It serves as a ballast weight at the base of the lamp No electrical funstion, no structural finction, just dead weight to lower center of gravity and add stabilioty.   Any ideas on a source for a source?
