ABSTRACT:
A hand-held, motorized amusement device is provided for spinning a ball. A small battery powered motor, easily concealed in the palm of one hand, is attached to a shaft that extends upwardly from the hand and is concealed by one or more fingers. The end of the shaft supports a ball to be spun with the assistance of a small cup or by being inserted into the ball. When the motor is turned-on using a variable speed switch, the shaft and the ball spin, thereby creating the illusion of manually spinning the ball on a fingertip.
