    Very nice! Very pricey! Imagine what shipping to Australia would cost - 1/4" thick steel...
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    But what are they used for? Is it a cooking thing, or just something to keep warm by?

    I'd love to know how they make the 1/4" steel into a sphere that big.

    Very nice, but how vulnerable would the thin, intricate pieces be to bending when adding the wood?

    I'd still like one though

    Any links to a photo or a YouTube vid? I reckon that'd be something to see.

    Large hollow stainless steel spheres|orbs|balls) and hemispheres
    but only in 4mm max thickness. How would stainless steel stand up to being regularly roasted?
