C.D. Peterson Pocket Top: 3/4-inch Copper
Tiny Turbine, Perfect Balance
Designed and turned by hand on a manual lathe, these tops are handmade from a bar of solid copper. They feature a unique ribbed handle and, compared with other C.D. Peterson-designed tops, a darker patina. Weighing in at less than an ounce, each top is portable and can easily be thrown into a pocket on the go. With a new, slightly larger 3/32-inch ceramic bearing, they deliver spin times over 7 minutes with a little practice and a hard spinning surface. Because each top is finished by hand, no two are exactly alike.
Note: This drop is limited to 100 units. As these tops will be hand-made to order for the group, please allow 4 to 6 weeks for shipping. Photos below show the original 1/16-inch bearing; the updated versions being offered on this drop will have a slightly larger 3/32-inch bearing.
