KV214 - pencil top (painting top)

different woods
approx. 45 x (pencil length) mm
With the pencil spinning top you can become a drawing artist. If his abilities to draw a straight line are also low, he is a true master in the curve.
This is how it works: Put the pencil through the spinning top body. The tip should stick out about 1.5 cm. The spinning top is turned by whisking it between the palms of the hands. Normal printer paper is suitable as a drawing surface, which is placed on a tray or in a box lid. If you twirl the spinning top vertically, it turns more or less on the spot. So if you want to paint something larger than a dot, you should put the top on at an angle. Another possibility is to tilt or swivel the underground to give the gyro a running direction. The shape of the tip also has a great influence on the running characteristics of the top. A blunt pencil is by no means a disadvantage here.
 All standard hexagonal pencils of hardness 2B and softer are suitable as replacement pencils.
