CNC-Machined Spinning Tops

The LIMBO Spinning Toy Sets the Record Spinning for 4 Hours

— December 31, 2022 — Art & Design
The New LIMBO spinning top is a world record-holding CNC machine design that spins for up to 4 hours. It does not need a special base and is able to spin on various surfaces. The LIMBO is made from premium-grade metal materials and uses CNC with a high polish and powder coat.

The tip is sharp and made from stainless steel to ensure an effortless spin for hours on end without tarnishing its durability. The custom-made moto helps the little top with a slight angular momentum that helps it spin at a steady rate of 1000 RPM. It has a rechargeable 3.7 battery that needs to be charged for 40 minutes and can support the LIMBO for 4 hours.
