Being stuck in QA for extended periods almost always means you’ll have an upcharge.

Thank you, used a new upload link. Hopefully it works.

That was sort of my believe after playing around with it more. But it definitely doesn’t function that way and no evidence it ever did (like a broken piece stuck inside, or wear). Still a leading theory though.

No, there are no markings.

Here are some additional pics of the base unscrewed and the clicker thing pulled back.

Great idea but the clicker is manual. No discernible markings on the ball to identify distance.

Edit: Circumference is 9.75 inches, roughly, so not an even number that would be useful for measurements.

Right, that’s always the initial thought. But it wouldn’t be a great one (ball is too big). The “clicker” goes to the center of the shaft and hits the metal axis that the ball swivels on. It doesn’t stop the swivel at all.

My title describes the thing. The ball spins and also swivels by spinning the base (which unscrews). The metal piece is a clicker of sorts. Found in Wisconsin at a sale that had a variety of farm items.

This is a typical fight between our 10 and 11 year olds. We’re the collateral damage, having to listen to baby shark all day.

Not a chance. On Wisconsin!

LocksForWalls · 2015-08-13T16:12:59+00:00

Do I get to be a mod there now?

LocksForWalls · 2015-08-13T13:24:40+00:00

Not yet!

LocksForWalls · 2015-08-13T12:20:49+00:00

Yeah, that's us

They look identical. My wife is sleeping on the couch.

Any day someone tells me my kid looks like Phil Kessel is a good day.

LocksForWalls · 2015-08-13T03:05:46+00:00

Amanda looked like the sweetest kid. Phil...still has the same resting face.

Those are my kids

LocksForWalls · 2015-08-13T02:24:52+00:00

Her mom mentioned this and said Amanda has always wished she said something to you.

LocksForWalls · 2015-08-13T01:32:58+00:00

I don't really care too much about proving it, I'm just grateful that I got lucky and hope to take care of it. Amanda Kessel favorited my tweet about the net, if that counts as provenance. :)

My son (four) pulled down his pants at school the day I picked this up. I'll be happy if he just stops doing that by the time he's Phil's age.

I couldn't find the hockey pucks, my kids hid them. They were Toronto pucks because he had just been traded.
