One of the most challenging tasks I have done as a sculptor has been engraving classic poems on stone spheres. The stone spheres are mounted on wooden bases with a low-friction surface that allows the spheres to be turned with minimal effort by the viewer, which is useful when you realize that a 12 inch granite sphere weighs 90 pounds.
