Step 3Make the balls of the ball joint
get your two screws, make a ball of ZapGel -OR- ShapeLock around the head. (ShapeLock might be better, I used ZapGel).
I also glued to tops from capped nuts (hack sawed off) onto the top to make a smoother metal half. This is not really necessary.
If you have ball bearing of appropriate size lying around, just ZapGel them to the tops of the screws instead.

The heads of acorn nuts will break off if you keep tightening a screw into them. I learned this by accident and had to go buy a new nut for the project I was building but it would be perfect for intentionally removing the dome part as you are doing.
