Excerpt from Manual Training Play Problems: Constructive Work for Boys and Girls Based on the Play Interest Tops. Tops may range from the crude primitive ones used by the Indians, to the wonderful gyroscope. The usual methods of spinning the simpler ones are by means of the thumb and finger, the palms of the hands, and the whip cord. Fig. I represents the simplest kind of a top made from an empty spool. Fit a dowel tightly into the hole at the center of the spool, cut the inside bevel down to the center, and the top will be ready for service. A round-headed tack or escutcheon pin may be used at the point for a plug. If it is desired to use a cord with this top, make a holder for it as suggested in Fig. 2. Bore a small hole in the middle of the stem to insert the end of the cord. This will catch the end of the cord and prevent it from slipping around the stem when beginning to wind the top. Wrap the cord with the holder in position on the stem of the top. To spin the top, place it in position and with one hand grasping the holder pull the cord, after which slip the holder off the stem. Many interesting variations can be worked out. An outline profile made of wire can be made as suggested in Fig. 4. The straight end of this wire can be slipped into a hole bored into the end of the stem. The rapid movement of the top will give to it an oddly interesting appearance. Studies in color combination can be made by placing colored papers on the upper surface of the disc. See Figs. 1 and 3. Tops made of sheet metal can be made to produce a variety of humming sounds by means of openings cut into the surface of the metal. With the wooden top this humming is possible to a very limited extent only. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
