Title: Spin top holster
Post by: Hydrona on July 02, 2020, 01:37:47 PM

Hello folks,
I finally made my idea a reality!  :D
I wanted to create a holster for my top, out of paracord.
After weeks of thinking about how I could do it, the construction idea came to mind.
It's very simple, I just wrapped the string around the crown of the top, down, and around the tip.
I sewed it together by hand. I've added a Keychain to it.
It's a prototype. I only use it for when playing on the grass or soft surfaces.
Maybe it's going to get better in the future, but I think it turned out well!

Nice! It reminds me of the way the Mexicans display their tops for sale at markets.

Nice elegant solution! You reminded me I tried something like this a few years ago. I wanted a holder made up of a single top string that could be untied and used with the top if needed. I also made a survival bracelet using two top strings woven together. Only thing is after you untie them the string is kind of lumpy and unsuitable for play.
