Watts' Tops A Revolutionary Experience

Hello my Watts' Tops Friend,

This is an important moment in the story of Watts' Tops, and I wanted you to hear it directly. For many years, care, patience, and skill have been poured into creating Watts' Tops masterpieces. Each spinning top crafted by hand from start to finish, shaped from carefully chosen wood, balanced, and finished so it would spin with beauty and grace. No two are exactly the same.

If you own one of these spinning tops, you hold something truly special. It carries the marks of the tools, the touch of the maker's hands, and the quiet time it took to shape it into a piece that works just as well for play as it does for display. Many people have enjoyed them simply for the joy of spinning, but others have found new and creative uses-some have even been used as stage props, adding charm and motion to live performances. Your spinning top has the potential to be both a delightful toy and a small work of art. Today, I must tell you that I am no longer producing these handmade masterpieces. The tools and materials that once brought them to life are now set aside. It's the end of a chapter filled with shavings on the floor, the smell of freshly sanded wood, and the quiet satisfaction of watching another top come to life.

But endings make room for beginnings. While these handmade tops will not return in their original form, there is something new ahead-something I am calling Watts' Tops version 2.0. What will it be? That's a surprise for the future. I'm not ready to share the details yet, because I believe in letting a good idea take its time. Just as the original masterpieces took careful thought and hands-on attention before they were ready, version 2.0 will need the same care in its design and creation. You might wonder what to expect. I can't answer that fully right now-but I can promise that version 2.0 will be worth looking forward to. It will carry the same spirit of creativity and quality that made the original tops so loved, while also bringing something fresh to the table.

While you wait, I hope you'll take a moment to appreciate the craftsmanship of the top you may already have. Notice the smoothness of its curves, the balance as it spins, the way it can rest quietly in your hand before coming to life in motion. These details are the result of many hours of work, guided by both experience and care.

Many people over the years have shared their joy in these handmade pieces-some recalling their first perfect spin, others describing the smile it brought to a child or friend, and a few telling stories of how their top helped bring a scene to life on stage. Each story is part of the legacy of Watts' Tops, and you are part of that legacy too.

Thank you for being here at this turning point. Even though the handmade masterpieces will no longer be made, the story continues. And when Watts' Tops version 2.0 is ready, you will be among the first to know. Until then, enjoy the memories, keep your top spinning when you can, and know that something new is on the horizon.
