What is a "gee-haw whimmy diddle"?

A gee-haw whimmy diddle is a traditional toy that consists of a wooden stick with a notched piece of wood attached to it. The goal of the toy is to make the notched piece spin when the stick is twisted back and forth. As the stick is turned, the friction between the pieces causes the notched part to spin, making a buzzing sound. The toy has been used for centuries, particularly in folk traditions, and is often seen as a simple but fun challenge for developing hand-eye coordination and motor skills. It is a classic example of a toy that relies on mechanical motion.
