The first one looks lethal. Seems like it would scratch and gouge. And =
the price!

Second one is OK. You could save yourself about $29:00 and make one =
yourself. Make a pattern with stiff cardboard. Transfer the pattern to =
two or three bits of ply, depending on which ply you=E2=80=99ve got to =
hand. Cut them out, erring slightly on the small side. Glue them =
together with, say, a decent PVA glue. Clamp it up for a while. Tidy it =
up with a sander and adjust for fit.

I did that. Worked fine. I never use it! Prefer my old nylon/rubber Thor =
per:-

eBay item number: 352392763651

I=E2=80=99ve white nylon on one side & black rubber on the other. Got it =
for my first Healey, so I=E2=80=99ve had it about 48 years. Get spinner =
moving with the nylon & get it off with the rubber.                      =
                                                                         =
                 =20

You need the hammer to hit the wood and, if the hammer is not too harsh =
with which to hit the spinner, why bother with the wood?
