This one is not the thing that the name says it is. Watch out for it not being a multiple of 5 sized puzzle. That makes it super tricky.

It worked easily for me, but I can't really make out a whirl-a-gig. More like a top.

On this site especially you have to take a moment to look at the real meanings of words, not just the definitions you learned in context growing up. The definition of whirligig is any toy that spins around. It's not just a word for what we might called a "pinwheel" in the US. It applies to a top like this as well.

As Femme says, whirligig can mean spinning top. We in the UK call wind pinwheels 'windmills' not whirligigs.

This one showed up as new for me today. It has 3+ year old commments...how odd.

It was originally just on the Russian site, now they're translating all the titles of the old puzzles into English, which is a great bonanza.

That IS wonderful!

We had a toy like this for my kid sisters: a base, and a metal spiral that pulled out and made the top spin.

Surprisingly fiddly, but fun to do.

I had at least one of these, brightly painted metal and rather noisy.

In Dutch it is called a 'bromtol' meaning a toll making a deep sonorous sound
