Maybe I'll make a video once I have more spinners to compare.For now, a peak at the new prototype (still not the one that I really want, but that one will take a while)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)Aluminum body, and thumb rests (not made yet)

I just got a Vorso Flat Top the other day and I'm hooked on spinners now
I like this thread RIP V2 - long live V2.1 Is that carbon fibre in the last pic?
My fidget is a rubix speed cube. I decided to learn how to solve the rubix cube last year (gotta love you tube for stuff like that), and am now trying to get my time down to as low as possible. I stuck with a cheapo cube until I could solve it easily, then invested in the rubix speed cube and cube lube (which turned out to be standard silicon grease) to get faster. Once I've got to the limits of this one I'll invest in one of the expensive speed cubes maybe.I keep a rubix cube on my desk at work which most people naturally pick up and mess up for me as well.I'm down to 2 1/2 minutes now. It never ceases to amaze me how people can solve them in seconds. I'll be happy once I get under 2 minutes (for now)

I'll be happy once I get under 2 minutes (for now) It's been a while since I picked mine up!I think the best time I ever got was just a hair under 2 minutes.If you want to get a good speed cube without being too expensive, you can try cube4you dot com. I have an original, but it was quite stiff, Then I got a speed cube kit (yes, completely disassembled ) from that site, and got another kit (a cheaper one) completely free!!
I've taken to making my own spinners - the kids love 'em
I will yes! I did try to film me putting a batch together last week as some guys of Facebook were asking, but it didn't come out well!I will try again soon though - maybe just go through the parts / how to assemble

Is there a facebook spinner community??
I fidget with anything in my hands really But one thing I particularly like are the half-stop implements on Vics. The half-stop makes them one-hand enabled which is good So, usually, the bottle opener on a Cadet or something like that, open - half closed - open - half closed etc.
I bought mine at a store called Showcase.https://www.shopatshowcasecanada.com/products/jitter-box
