It's such an amazing looking device, so shiny and polished and professional looking. The craftwork is so well done that it's a bit of a shock when it wobbles so much in use. I never thought out that before... and now I understand why the wooden one a friend owns has a big lump of lead in the spinning part as a counterweight (which, BTW, is too low, it still wobbles a little. I suspect a second, smaller, weight at the very top would help).
