Orbiter is 10" tall, it has a 3.5"X3.5" four sided wood base, two wood posts, a cord and a ring. Game rules are included. The Orbiter is similar to the executive gift Newton's Cradle in that the Orbiter is a pendulum device, used to demonstrate the laws of motion. Newton's Cradle and the Orbiter are part of a group of toys known as "art in motion toys". Swing descriptions: To learn the swings, please use the text below and the video demonstrations. Swing # 1 - With the long post toward the player, swing # 1 requires that the ring be drawn back to the right side of the long post. Swing the ring down and then up onto the shorter post. Swing # 2 - With the long post toward the player, swing # 2 requires that the string be looped left and drawn back. Swing the ring down and then up onto the shorter post. Swing # 3 - With the short post toward the player, swing # 3 requires that the ring be pulled back, up and out several inches to the left of the shorter post. Swing the ring down toward the base of the longer post. It will then curve out and then back and up onto the shorter post. Swing # 4 requires that the string be looped around the long post to the right and back so that the ring is held over the top of the short post. Swing the ring out to the right. It must travel all the way around the long post up and onto the shorter post. Swing # 5 requires that the string be looped once around the long post and then drawn out to the right of the top of the long post. Swing the ring down between the two posts. It will then loop out around and back up onto the shorter post. Swing # 6 - requires that the string be looped twice around the long post to the right and drawn back to the player. Swing the ring out hard to the right. It will travel back around the long post twice and then catch onto the shorter post.
