Remember those things that had round silver/chrome spheres, attached to thin threads that hung on a stand, and you could crash them one into another, and they would go back and forth for long periods? What do you call those or that?

 
I called them Click Clacks too, but I think that might have been a brand name? It's a Newton's Cradle

I left the balls out to keep Phin at bay. The mobile/art itself I meant.
