Trooper_trent inspired me to try this, absolutely love what he did with his remotes. I'd get one of his but really don't want to spend that kind of money at the moment. So, I'm going to try this myself and see if I can do one for under $100.
I got this levitating globe for $53 on eBay and that included shipping.
I peeled off the globe wrap, took some measurements, did a light sanding everywhere (to include the seam), and used a step bit to drill some holes for the rim pieces.
I'm printing all the pieces myself on my Anycubic, so the cost for these little pieces is negligible. Probably cost me less than $2.00 to print all of them.
A quick test fit of the rim......
I found most of the image files online. I'll be modifying a few and creating some from scratch. This is a quick piece I did for the top and bottom.
So this puts me at about $55.00 so far............
