Customer Reviews
Tricky but very cool.
You really do need to follow the directions. It must be extremely level, and the weight within 0.15 grams (don't loose the little washers), but when you get it working, everyone is impressed and surprised. Once it was adjusted, a 9 year old learned to do it with the battery powered top spinner. (As they tell you warm magnets are weaker, so on warmer days or after the top warms up in your hands, you sometimes have to change the weight by the smallest amount.)
magnets...
...is there anything they can't do? MRIs (Magnetic Ressonance Imaging machines) can find out what ails ya - magnetic bracelts can heal your arthritis and refridgerator magnets hold your child's artwork in place. Now magnets have moved into the realm of kinetic entertainment. This well balanced magnetic repulsion setup will let your top spin for minutes on end in what appears to be mid air. Fascinating, relaxing and almost trance-inducing.
