The Orrex Gyroscope

The other object that will not sit still.

Machined from solid brass, spun once with a pull of the cord, and it holds itself upright for close to four minutes. The same trick your Orrex does with orbits, this one does with balance.

• Solid brass rotor and gimbal ring, high polish, weighted for a long spin
• Runs 3 to 4 minutes on one pull, on the stand or on your fingertip
• Brass pedestal on a turned walnut base, so it displays instead of rolling into a drawer
• Same finish and scale as the Orrex, made to sit beside it
