Very nice, first top I've seen with tritium. Where can I buy one?

 

[RGRAY]

This was a Kickstarter project and sold out.
I missed it too but found this on Ebay.

Very nice. I have that exact same one. Loads of tritium. Looks very cool.

One of my newest. A nice heavy piece of Damascus. Top is from kohbanang in Austria. Has a zirc bearing.

Joshual Dawson has an Indiegogo campaign for a budget friendly ($65) one-piece top. Dawsons are some of the smoothest tops out there. I always jump at the chance to buy his tops.

Is that a Billetspin I see there?

Yes (#5), that's a BILLETSPIN K2 #27 SS/W/SS CERAMIC BEAD.

They produce some amazing and unique designs. I do like a lot of the others you have as well. Great collection there.

I Spun my KREMNER DESIGN KD STARTER alm with a ss bearing and it stopped on the bearing.
Has anyone else done this?

 

[AndreaW]

Not with that particular top, but yes, I've had standing stops. That could be caused by incredible balance, pit in the mirror, or flat spot on the bearing.

The $6,000 spinning top.

 

[Father Azmodius]

Wow. That's beautiful

A lot of the cost of the Wraith comes from design and machining time.

Here's the latest BilletSPIN: The Matrix. Available soon. These pics show the Stainless Steel / Timascus / Stainless Steel combo, but there will be many other configurations of this 9 piece top.
