Product Description
Made of precision machined parts, the meticulously engineered Quark Top will spin longer than any other commercial top of its size! -- With conventional tops typically spinning for 30-45 seconds, the Quark is capable of spin times of more than an quarter hour. Made of brass, this exceptional science product is the result of a carefully engineered combination of weight distribution, balancing technology, tip topology, material selection, handle optimization, and exacting proportions. The tip is made of carbon steel. The hardness of this material prevents tip deformation that can detract from the optimum contact region. -- The Quark can be enjoyed in many ways - as a mermerizing gadget/toy, as a timer to limit the duration of meetings, as a game where players compete for longest spinning time, and as a great educational tool for demonstrating various laws of physics, engineering, math, and more. -- Kit includes Quark Top, 8" round glass spinning surface, laser pointer with batteries, black grip tape, 2 black round labels, L-key tool, instruction sheet, 7 plastic washers, approximately 50 small washers, 3 very small washers, and 3 wooden shims. |

Spinning Top Review by Skill Game Hunter (CA)  4 Stars
September 12, 2005
The top is impressive. It is large, heavy and silver in color. It takes practice to get it to spin correctly. It is expensive, but it is unique and you also get a small laser pointer.
