Abstract:
A swinging bob toy having a first outer bob attached to a first outer looped tethering means, a second outer bob attached to a second outer looped tethering means, and a central bob attached to a central looped tethering means, the first outer looped tethering means being attached at an outer end of a first segment of the central looped tethering means, and the second outer looped tethering means being attached at an outer end of a second segment of the central looped tethering means. The outer looped tethering means are attached to the central looped tethering means by means of half hitches, the outer looped tethering means are attached via apertures in the bobs by means of half hitches, thereby allowing the toy to be rapidly disassembled and reassembled, possibly with the incorporation of components from additional toys, in other configurations. The central looped tethering means is a non-hollow string while the outer looped tethering means are coreless tethering means which generally take a flattened state.
