The Story of The Swinging Sticks
The Swinging Sticks was invented by two German friends who aimed to build a perpetual motion machine. They spent months improving and tweaking small details to minimize the friction of their design. By the time they had finished they had built a new item that caught the attention of the world: The Swinging Sticks.
Since the beginning of the 2000's The Swinging Sticks have grown in popularity, which culminated in 2010 when The Swinging Sticks was featured in the Iron Man 2 movie. The director of the movie, Jan Favreau, had seen the item on vacation and decided to include it in his Iron Man 2 movie. Since then The Swinging Sticks have been known worldwide and it has become one of the most popular perpetual motion items in the world.
In 2017, The Swinging Sticks Desktop Toy was launched after many years in the making. This new invention allowed even more people access to the physics defying beauty and has helped build the awareness and popularity of The Swinging Sticks even further.
