For the past decade, Reynold Mackey of Paranneaux Globes has been sculpting physiographic globes from materials like wood and bronze. There’s not a whole lot of information on his website, a bit more on the Instagram account, but a lot of detail about his methods emerges in his conversation with Evan Applegate on the Very Expensive Maps podcast (episode link: Apple Podcasts, Spotify).
