You would hold the center ring and move & time your hand up & down to force the balls to contact at the 6:00 and 12:00 position, thus creating a click clack noise. Head and hand injuries were common. |
The 45 inserts that I remember were solid, kinda like a cap.
And I've played with click clacks over the years, but they were not on strings, rather they were attached by plastic rods.
Thanks for the explanation, Dave.
