New spinner fast learner
« on: April 13, 2017, 10:06:55 PM »

I'm new to the forum so I'm introducing myself.  I have been top spinning since November after I saw a scarecrow entertainer doing some sweet tricks.  I've earned my 8 trick patch and will be getting my 16 soon and have been dabbling in the expert 24 tricks.  I have joined the College for the Easily Amused skill toy club in Minnesota and have met some amazing people like dazzling Dave and softspin from the forum.

Can you post a larger version of that logo of the College of the Easily Amused?

This is the logo I created for the club after I joined.  I made a back patch for my top spinning shirt, ready to get more award patches for it.

Can I assume from your forum name that you are a VW fan?

My VWs have all been air-cooled. I've had three different '64s and a later SB.  I recently got out of the hobby, and sold my last two cars.  I still have a bunch of parts to sell this summer....
