I've seen that video before, after seeing yours I'll have to give it a try. Steve makes a new video every Friday, he can be very entertaining at times

OK  I made one of thes spinners.  It is almost 2 feet long. looks good, getting nice compliments on the design and colors, HOWEVER it will not spin in the wind.  I can hold it in front of a fan and it will spin , but not great. Hanging ith a good breez blowing, all id does is wobble back and forth -  any ideas??? >:( >:( >:(
