If you buy multiple cones of different designs, I will refund any shipping overage charged by eBay.
All grade of cones have some level of creasing near the top that happens as part of the assembly process (think rolling thick cardstock).
Each cone about 16” tall. The width of the cone is about 8”. You'll also receive the glass dome that sits on the metal spike, then the shade is gently placed on the glass dome. Each tree spins from the heat produced from the incandescent light bulb. The higher wattage of the bulb the faster they spin. I recommend 25 watt, but some people said they needed a 40 or even 60 watt to get it to spin. LED bulbs will not work as they do not produce any heat. Can use white or different color bulb for different effects.
The metal point spins on a glass dome for more consistent spinning action. The old way of metal on metal often prevented consistent spinning. The cone is a thicker paper for many years of enjoyment. Lastly I have only 4 slits for the heat to make the tree spin. With just 4 slits it takes less heat to make it spin, thus a lower watt bulb will work.
To set up, simply place the glass come on the point, then gently place the cone on the glass dome. Plug in and enjoy. It can take some time before it starts to spin, you can also give it a gentle spin to get it started, but not necessary.
Spin speed is also affected by the ambient temperature of the room and placement. If placed by a large draft picture window, it will take a larger watt bulb to get enough heat to spin.
I can ship multiple cones in one box. The box is to be used for storage.
