Anyone try this spinner/wheel combo...?

Seems like a cool concept (and cheap prices)...a spinner knob that doubles as a 360 wheel.

Has anyone tried this?

Not sure...I just know what's on the website...and there doesn't seem to be much information.

There's another thread on this site about this same item.  I think the post title was something like:

"Has anyone ever tried this..."   (look familiar, lol)

Anyhow, I purchased a spinner from this guy on ebay a while back.  Mine looks a little different than the one he is selling now, but I'm sure it is comparable.  The soinner works fine.  It's not an Oscar spinner, but its also not Oscar priced.

The picture of the wheel is a little misleading.  But not if you read the description.  Its only 7" wide, so its not very authentic, but again, its not bad for the price.

Hope that helps.

Ah...knew there had to be a catch somewhere.  I really want something like that for csprint.  I wonder how well a 7" wheel would work...I remember spinning the hell out of the wheel on that game....
Hope that helps.
