Well I have seen a version of this...which was in a science festival (in ACT, Australia) back in 2003. It was very similar to the spinning levitron
but it could take weight on top of it…plus had unlimited spin due to some huge coils around it. Also there was another one with a magnetic motor
spinning at the bottom while another magnetic device floated above which could also had weight on it and the base could stand vertically for that
one.
It was also in display in a museum type of place called “Questacon” for a year and had a small “toy” version in sale for some time(not
anymore)…no idea by which company. Anyway I’m in aus so don’t know if anything here gets out to the rest of the world or not…lol. So for me it
definitely wasn’t 2007 but 2003…and yes technically it’s not a decade…yet!
And don’t get me wrong, not here to be some generic troll in this thread…if you are selling it…I’ll be one of those buying it. Simple. So let
us know if you open up an ebay shop
