The fighting tops were built by laying strips of craft wood side by side and gluing them together.  After that was done I used glue to attach a piece of paper on to the top.  It had a circle printed on it and I used that to correctly shape the top.

Next I created a plasticard circle this was glued to the bottom of the top.  After that I shaped eight pieces of basswod into a triangle shape and glued those to the bottom.  These eight pieces where arranged 2 at a time 45 degrees from each other.
