Come giocavano i nonni molto prima dell'era elettronica e dei videogiochi? Questo video dei nonni del web riporta in vita per voi che ci seguite un giocattolo semplice e divertente del passato e vi mostra come costruirlo. Come al solito lavoriamo in coppia, Antonio in Australia a fare il lavoro materiale ed io nel Salento a sbrogliare la parte digitale.
tops are a great skill building project and don't take a lot of time and can be done with scrap blocks around the shop. This is my take on the way and shape I like. editing done with power detector and GoPro Quick app music from GoPro Quick app song library song: explosive upward motion artist: Kissa I'm not a professional Turner this is just a quick project video showing my take on how I turn and the shape I like when making tops it is meant to inspire others to create. The best way to learn turning in my opinion is to take a class or read books by professionals. Be safe and enjoy.

To see more of Thomas Haeckel's work, go to http://drechsler-wissen.de/ (This is an unprotected site on the web) The site is in German so hit the TRANSLATION button in the upper right corner of the page.
Never thought this top would spin so well! This is my first top and my first attempt at using the chuck. All my videos are me sharing my journey as I learn this art form. I am a student, not a teacher and in no way an expert. Please take time to read, learn, and study so that you can be safe! Use and wear all appropriate safety equipment including head protection, face shield, and respiratory protection. Thank you for joining me on this journey!

This is a sped up version of the recent spinning top video that I banged together to put on Facebook, 'cause we kinda know attention span on Facebook is shorter than on YouTube... oh look something shiny.... Anyway I thought I'd put it here as well because it's a nice bite sized video that looks a bit cool sped up, now back to looking at cats playing piano on facebook....

A Natural Top Oak form with small opening turned to the very end. On the last pass, failure. It had launched once before, but I managed to put it back together, but failure was it's destiny.
Hand turning a quick spinning top out of some pine. They only take a couple of minutes to turn up but are a bit of a fun little project and give kids minutes of fun away from their tablet or phone, maybe more, depending on the kid :) In these days of beyblades and fidget spinners, these are a great little fidget toy, plus you could probably teach a kid to make one, you know, give a man a fish or teach him to fish. __________________________ Music: People are spinning by Loyalty Freak Music is licensed under a CC0 1.0 Universal License.

This was not recorded with the intention to upload it was a quick project to show a child woodturning but as it has been well received I have posted it. Please like if you enjoy it.
Let's make a spinning top shaped like a strawberry. The top will be turned on a lathe out of a piece of hard maple. This spinning top is great practice with the skew chisel. Making tops on the lathe is a great way to learn wood turning fundamentals. Almost any turning tool or technique can be used to make spinning tops and there are unlimited styles and methods of making them.
Happy New Year! This new years spinning top ball drop was a quick and fun project. To help celebrate we woodturned a countdown ball spinning top. This top is spun upside down with the stem on the bottom. Tools used include the roughing gouge and the skew chisel. The top is made on a lathe from a solid piece of maple. Making tops is a fun project for the beginning woodturner, although this one might be a little more challenging as a bead is rolled for the ball. Using the skew chisel to roll beads can be difficult but leads to fantastic results when you become proficient.
In this video I am making a toy top on a Wood Turning lathe. For this Spinning Top I combine Alumilite casting and walnut wood. It turned out really nice and will spin for 2 minutes or more. This was a fun little project that combined two different materials.
November 22nd Wonders In Wood - Dan Davis Demonstrates Turning A Top. this was a live demonstration at the show.
A fun project, but don't plan on every one working. Maybe 4 out of 5 you will get to flip over. One thing is don't try to spin the top too hard or fast, it is when it starts to slow down that it flips over.
Dallas is one of our clubs founding members and an excellent turner in his own right. This October at the Wonders In Wood show, put on by the Tri-State Carvers Club, Dallas turned a top as a demonstration. It's always a pleasure watching an experienced turner at work.

Remember that movie that Leonardo DiCaprio was in? No, not 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape.' No, not 'The Beach.' The one with the space/time continuum. That's right! Inception. By equal parts demand and request, I have done my best to recreate that famous prop from a movie I've never seen. Please share and subscribe and thank you.
At our November meeting, we did not have a demonstration for the month. Instead, we had a Top Spinoff where whomever wanted to participate, designed and made tops completely from wood. The winner wins a gift certificate. All the tops were donated to the Carpenters Local 243 for their holiday party.

With all the things piling up, insomnia isn't the best to live with. Yesterday I felt the need to play (well around midnight, for some a strange time, but I needed something to concentrate on without a special goal to achieve). Actually I managed to sleep for 5 hours (something I haven't done for a long time) normally its 2-3 hours a night and some naps during the day.

I like making spinning tops, but it is too expensive to make them from a solid piece of wood. Making a top from two pieces is less expensive and a better use of resources. I mostly use reclaimed wood from discarded furniture, so why waste it..
I made 2 spinning tops out of one piece of scrap beech. Lots of fun for myself turning these pieces and even more fun for the children who received them. Please leave a comment, I'd like to improve my turning skills.

After 5 tries, mostly at 55-56 seconds, here is how fast I could go. Using Maple Wood for a challenge, a record set by Sam Angelo at Wyoming Woodturning. BUT, some facts to consider, I'm turning at max speed 2760 rpm, Sam's turning at 4000 rpm. So, maybe, if I turned at 4000 rpm, then I'd finish this at 24.5s ;-) But, anyhow, I could NOT beat Sam's record.

Just a quick vid. on making a spinning top. This is very hard Beech, so a little chatter occurs .No sanding or colouring, just the basic top.
I like doing pieces that MOVE. Our turning club, Silicon Valley Woodturners, has an annual Tops Night. Tops spin! Why not do a piece that SPINS - but - doesn't look like a top? More about this piece here http://web.hypersurf.com/ charlie2/Turning/GoyaTop/GoyaTop.html Comments, suggestions and constructive criticism welcomed.
I didn't realise that I demonstrated the Top with a different one, but you'll get how they work anyway. Hope you enjoyed this and sorry for no talking, but it's my first video and I had dust protection.
A momentary lack of concentration at the end of this one.....OOPS !!!
