First spinning top kit

[Gizmo3k]

I made this a while ago, just got around to photographing it. It is far from perfect, but it works well and the kids like it!

Cherry and brown oak, I drilled the centre hole for the tube first, then glued everything up - I hoped it would help keep the centre hole in the centre.

It's a cracker and segmented as well I think I have one of those kits and I must get round to turning it.

I like what you have done with the segmenting Alan, a nice looking toy ..

 

[Gizmo3k]

I have to be honest - the segmenting was mostly cos I didn't have a bit of wood big enough!
