Rick Lax has put the Moonspinner principle into use in a rather neat way.

hmm. it's a nice application of this curio. I actually own one of these tips already they sell them at the science museum and online. they are ever so slightly asymmetrical and it causes them to upturn. what's really odd is that once upturned it actually changes the direction it spins. it's a clever bit of thinking to make it into a trick and combine it with the inception theme. the only problem I can see with it is you may get a few people who already know about the top.especially in the UK where it was featured on QI.
nice final phase too to wrap it up :)
Now you see me...
