8 hours into this print ~4 more hours to go. Working on rev2 while I wait.

abs es una resina muy resistente 

Verdad que el ABS es muy fuerte. Ya a dejado caer los otros trompos que a hecho sin problema.

tippy top

hello again : weight distribution works perfectly
if you liked to improve stability after the return effect , you could round up the tip with a nail sharpener

Well here she is.
259gm / 4.45" diameter / 5.45" tall (no tip)
I made a string with 6 (No 10) crochet thread and she regenerates well. I am going to fix some things on rev2. I think she can be lighter. The next shape will be closer to the small top I have been making. I have to rethink things for the larger top. All in all I am happy with this first rev. I shall name her Galdis. Rev2 soon to come.......

WOW. I loved the video. I enjoy watching big tops in action. Your tops are looking great. Anytime your in the BAY AREA get in touch with me and we'll have a lot of fun. Life is great when you have TROMPO BUDDIES.

Thanks Cecil,
I will definitely look you up when I head up there. I sometimes go to Santa Rosa.

Here are pictures of Rev2.
5.2" diameter / 5.4" tall (without tip) / 229gm
.2mm layer thickness with 60% fill.
2mm wall thickness with 5mm at the shoulder for better stability.
I had to make a bit of a thicker string for her but she is worth it. More stable than Gladis. This one shall be named Purple Rain.
I have Rev3 all cadded up. Hope to get it printed soon. It will be a different shape than the first two.
I tried to take pictures of the process bellow.

Very nice. Purple Rain has a nice shape.
