Need to keep reality in check? Well, then I guess you will be needing a spinning top. According to a movie legend, if a spinning top falls, you are all good cos’ you are still with reality and if it does not fall and goes on and on, then make sure you give yourself a slap and wake the hell up. This simple reality check calls for a spinning top, which Canadian spinning top specialist (yes, there’s such a specialist) is ready to sell you one that’s meticulously crafted from a solid block of metal billet. Do not sneer at this vintage toy that has been rebooted by Forever Spin.
Apparently, besides being a work of art, it has therapeutic effects on our mind, well, not in the Inception way, but it will kind of help you de-stress a little, and even enhances your creativity and thought process, and educate you (like learning that reality can be a b*tch). Jokes aside. It is a known fact that repetitive motion, a smooth one that is, calms a person’s mind and the spinning top will, in theory, do the same to our frail and ever stressed out mind. Apart from that, it is an art, whether it is spinning or resting on the display slash spinning platform. In addition, it is a simple toy that lets friends, family or coworkers engage in a who-spun-the-longest competition.
The tops are crafted in Canada, CNC-machined from pure minerals like magnesium, zirconium and damascus steel and paired to an uber elegant round stainless steel platform with a surface of fused silica glass, giving it a diamond-like carbon surface finish that’s not only ridiculously hard but touts 16x improved coefficient over the last generation’s spinning top set.
Whether you are looking for a desktop art, a de-stress tool, or simply has a thing for metals, the spinning tops by Forever Spin is the choice object. If so, you may want to considering pre-ordering it over on Kickstarter. Delivery is slated to happen in March 2016. Prices start at just 29 bucks and can run up to as high as $489, depending on how soon you pre-order it, the metal you chose and the quantity. Go check it out.
