It's a vintage wooden game I played many, many years ago and it popped into mind as a idea for another miniature printable thingy.

So here you are, it's not complex to build or play, after a search around I found that these two were the most common variations but I did come across some crazy elaborate ones too.

In case you are not familiar, you set the board up with some skittles placed in the "rooms", wind some string (cotton at this scale) around your spinning tops, hold 'em steady in the cut outs at the front and then pull the string with some force.
Your crazed Tasmanian devil of a spinning top hopefully will then bounce around, knocking skittles over and gaining you the high score.

I had quite a few ideas for more elaborate versions myself but for version one, I will stick to the classics.

I printed everything at my usual low 5% Rectilinear infill (2 walls, .2 layer 3x top/bottom layers, basic pla) except with a couple of exceptions: The spinning tops I printed pretty much solid to give them weight and the skittles, you might want to consider a brim.

Interested in a game of Battling Tops anyone?
