Operation Instructions

​Spin up pendulum, be sure not to spin it to fast or you will hit the sides of the base. Once you can see a nice rotation from the pendulum stop the hand driven rotator. Watch the pendulum spin while the rotator is at rest. Since the pendulum is on a spring steel rod rather than a string the pendulum is damped and will fairly quickly decrease the radius of rotation until to gets to a fairly small one.
