Hay algunas cosas interesantes.
Me sorprendió que la madera de encino la secan por seis meses a la sombra pero solo después de haberle dado un primer torneado.
Los trompos con los discos de hueso en una ranura, como el que muestra alrededor de 8:30 siempre me resultaron atractivos

Wonderful video!

What country is this? The shapes and decorations are much more varied than those in your last series of videos on wooden peg tops from around the world -- and not just because you have a mix of finger and throwing tops here. Especially love the shape at 6:05 and the way it's been painted at 11:50. And barrel tops! Who knew?

Mi trompo con huesos y madera quemada como el que aparece a 8:30 ( my top with bone parts and burned wood like the one that appears at 8:30):



Se ve que la punta tuvo un problema y fue reemplazada.

Eso es porque la madera se tornea mas rapido cuando esta verde, entonces se pueden hacer con mas velocidad. Tambien puede ser para que sequen mas rapido, aunquen 6 meses la madera no esta completamente seqo.
