Up for auction is an Oloid Wobbler made from solid hardwood. The condition and craftsmanship are very nice, and the curves are still nice and sharp. It wobbles and rolls in a straight line!
"The Oloid Wobbler is a fascinating applied science toy derived from the Oloid (a geometric object created by mathematician Paul Schatz). It is formed when two disks of the same size and diameter are intersected at right angles to each other.
The Wobbler is mathematically optimized, with the center of the disks spaced apart equal to the square root of two multiplied by the radius. The result is that the center of gravity remains constant while the object is in motion."
Note: The maker of this item is unknown, as is the wood species.

These puzzles are extras and oddballs that have accumulated in the shop. Sometimes when we make a run of puzzles we will have a few with different woods, etc. which are too much trouble to list individually on the website. These puzzles are all in new condition and fully functional.
