A sphere uses the most blocks for its size - every layer above ground needs scaffolding or a temporary center pillar.

How to build it

  1. Lay the widest ring as the equator first - it sets the size and shape.
  2. Build the bottom half layer by layer, shrinking each ring toward the bottom cap.
  3. Place a temporary pillar through the center to keep every layer aligned.
  4. Build the top half with growing rings until you pass the equator.
  5. Finish with the top cap, then remove the temporary pillar.

Copy it as /setblock commands

Open the generator and hit Copy /setblock to get every block as a Minecraft command. Add your world coordinates and the whole Sphere lines up exactly where you want it to be.
