Part them off and then hold by the tenon and complete rounding .
They look fine just not complete.<br>

<div>Hi All,</div>
<div>I'm making a walnut cabinet for our bathroom, which is
patterned after a mid 1800's French Country Pine Nightstand.
It has bun feet. I've turned 4 for the new piece, but am not
exactly happy with them. When Turning the bun or ball part, it
is difficult for me to get them ball shaped. I turned a
cylinder a tad larger than the finished diameter of the bun.
Then I marked the bun off in thirds, and started turning.
Starting from the middle working my way down to the ends. I
used a 1/2" skew and 1/4" thumbnail gouge.</div>
<div>Pictures attached. The first picture is the
original cabinet and the second is one of the feet that I
turned.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any advice is greatly appreciated.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>
