Dreidel

[VertigoCycles]

For the past seven or eight years I raid my material drops around the holiday time and make spinning tops for my friends and their families. I had a good sized brass round that I thought would make a good sized dreidel so I spent about an hour in the shop working on it and I think it turned out pretty nice. As per my normal MO, I should have taken better photos before delivering it...sorry for the link.

That's great! Would totally buy one.

Me too, let us know . . .

thanks guys. I make them from leftovers and there's only so much. I'm doing another small run of heatsinks soon so we'll see what remains after that. If there's enough, I'll get in touch.

FWIW, this is about 1.5" corner to corner and weighs just shy of 8oz. You wouldn't want to play with this on a nice table. My 5y/o dropped it on our teak table and the bearing left a pretty good dent in there.

I would expect nothing less.

Too cool Sean. The dreidel game was one of the best memories I have of family Channukah.
