I have had this top for a little while now. It is my second pocket top. My first is a Prometheus. This is a pretty difficult top to spin correctly. It is very close to the surface and especially with a concave shaving mirror it will really test your ability to spin straight. Luckily even an easy spin can get over 6 minutes but if I try any harder it always goes wonky. Must practice more! But a beautiful top and once it is going it really goes good.
