I've been wanting to make a few simple tops to give to (well-behaved) kids at the shows I do. The method you show is nice and quick.

Glyn Buckley WR Addict Offline WR, the Center of the Vortex Posts: 554 Gender:	Re: Turning tops Reply #10 - Sep 18^th, 2008 at 11:24pm Watched the video. Now that is cool . I have tried turning a few tops and I am not near that fast. I also keep breaking the shafts. I guess I will have to investigate a chatter tool. It added a lot to the tops finish. I use a set of colored Sharpies to color mine(Office Depot sale).
