well, 1:3ish scale. I didn't make it, the other half (The Yeti on here) did on his lathe. It spins for about a minute (it's very light!). Diameter is 10mm. I should add this is the first time he's tried making a top of any size (he was originally making a lanyard bead, and then decided to see if he could make a top)

This is the top:

This is Giselle (50cm Obitsu) holding it:

And this is a link to the yeti's instragram post with a vid of it spinning - it carried on for a while after the vid ended and was stable enough that it was really hard to tell the thing was spinning!

That is so awesome! I love in scale unique items. Your other half did a great job on it.
