Precision machined spinning tops...the latest trend!

So we just have to keep reloading the page and catch the minute they become available?

Pretty much. I think Rich will announce it once it's up on Indiegogo, then it's a free for all.

Wow, I saw the exotic Navigators listed five minutes after they went up and the superconductor one was already sold out... All of the exotics sold out within half an hour...

 

[Uluahunter]

Damn! Still sad I missed that Superconductor

My lambda top arrived...

Ruby contact point...

Looking through the hollow stem to the ruby...

And shining a flashlight through it, for ****s and grins...

Nice Lambda brah!

So I wanted to try making one of these so I did last weekend. Just got a 10m 38s spin on flat glass. Should easily break 12 with a concave mirror.

Oh, forgot to mention, I buggered this one a bit so it's not even balanced perfect.

Did you use anything special for the contact point?

Very cool - good job!

@kronin323 how are your spin times going on the new Lambda?
