Punk#5
« on: April 22, 2010, 08:59:21 PM »

Here is Punk#5, a Chris Neff's creation, it is truly a piece of art. Perfectly balanced, with a great tip, is a top created by a top player for playing using fine craftsmanship. It is very fun to play with, and beats all the other plastic tops of its size. It is hard to believe that this is one of his first turnings. Finally my collection has a true gem, this one I will keep forever and brag about it every chance I have.
Thanks a lot Chris, you have a bright future as a Master Top Turner.

Well, that was certainly more than I was expecting!  Wow!  And nice orbitas!  That was one of the hardest tricks for me to learn, seriously.  I still don't have it down like I want too.  Punk #5 turned out especially punk, with a epoxy-filled gap in the crown and everything; it seemed perfect for MatiasStuntMan.  I'm so proud my tops are finding lovely homes.  Many thanks for going out of your way to make a video, I love it!

Nice work guys!  A rewarding collaboration to be sure.  Maybe some punks will migrate out west sometime soon; SpinQueen and I are always looking for trouble... 

I really like the shape, are you generally going for the golden Spinningray Ratio?
