Description
A homemade version of the Time Turner featured in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. It took me a few days, more or less. It is made of three key rings, two beads and gold spray paint. (That little nub on the end is to turn it. It really does turn, as you can see above!
)The Time Turner concept and design belongs to Warner Bros. and J.K. Rowling. But I made this particular Time Turner myself
I'm quite proud of it.[EDIT: Gah, the bottom half of the picture got cut off. Sorry! It looks all uneven. I'm not used to this different computer that I've been using due to the fact that my old is terrible XD)

Thank you so much!
To make it turn, I unfolded a paper clip and glued the tip to the edge of the middle key ring, and then put the rest of the paper clip through the side of the outer key ring. Then I cut the paper clip down to size and glued a tiny bead to the end of it that was poking out of the outer side. That way, it could turn freely through the outer ring without slipping through the middle ring.
(I'm horrible at explaining things, so I apologize for making no sense XD)

It's not that tricky actually. I just cut a paper clip to a really small size and glued it to the middle keyring, and then poked the paper clip piece through the side of the outer keyring and glued another bead to it, and that's the little turning nub. I'm not very good at explaining things, I know XD I apologize for that. I'm thinking about posting a reference/step-by-step process of how to make one, since lots of people are asking how I did it.
