16" Hot Air Balloon Twister - Patriotic

Please note that after a couple of the top pieces kept popping out in the wind, we glued all the pieces to the form. Since we glued it together, the spinner looks great whether it is hanging in the sun or spinning in the wind :)

This is the third set of spinners I have bought. I started cheap, went mid range, and ended up with Pro Kites. I have been watching them through gusts as high as 60 mph. They do a terrific job of staying mostly vertical. The hard fins and plenty of space between them allows for that. As an extra precaution, I glued the fans in place. Probably not necessary, but what the heck. The cheaper versions all bounced around like ping pong balls in high winds. They also fell apart because of shoddy construction. Light glue instead of hard engineering. I couldn’t be happier. Pro Kite makes a fine product. I have three of them, all working well as anti-woodpecker devices, happily doing their jobs in the lightest winds and heaviest gusts.

enjoying it in my yard.

Love it! It was easy to assemble. It is sturdy, and catches even a light breeze!

Kind of a little crazy putting it together
