NJT W Nebu 2.0 is a hefty spinner!

Finally got myself a tungsten nebu 2.0 after I missed the last drop. This thing is a black beauty. I think I need a Crystallised Ti or Dama Steel button to match. Good Times.

Todayā€™s Spin: 313incā€™s Bulari V3 in Stainless Steel

These latest pieces from 313inc are really quite impressive. Especially if you enjoy spinners on the heftier side of the spectrum. This is my 4th one now from their current collection and Iā€™m loving the rounded edges and subtle textures machined into the flat surfaces.

Paired with this particular piece is Sacred Spinsā€™ Zirconium Ripple buttons. And I have to say, the two metals are a perfect complement to one another. Normally I donā€™t like mixing metals between bodies and buttons. But this combo really works for me.

If youā€™re a fan of 313incā€™s spinners you might enjoy hearing that they are ā€˜researching new materialsā€™. šŸ¤— (Hopefully they donā€™t mind me sharing that with the communityā£ļø) I mentioned Iā€™d love to see some of their current line in full Zirc. šŸ„³ How about Titanium? Would Mokume be to much to ask? Weā€™ll see. What do you think?

Cheers!

Grumpy 03

I was looking to find a Gobigger Pillbug standard version but it looks like finding one is near impossible. What I can find are the Youth and Lite models. Also; when I search I get references to the Grumpy 03 which looks surprisingly similar. How does it compare with the various Pillbug models(

Where to start with fidget spinners

Hey! So this subreddit has an amazing wiki for beginners new to the hobby, but I still see people not sure about where to begin, so I made a video on this. Huge shoutout to u/gturk1 who maintains the wiki and was a huge inspiration for me to create this video. I just hope this helps more people get interested in fidget spinners and toys!

I started a YouTube channel for fidget spinner reviews!

Hey everyone, I started a YouTube channel reviewing fidget spinners. I really want this community to keep growing, and want to do what I can to get more people interested, focusing more on currently available pieces (starting with FeiFei Origin). I'll try to post once a week.

If you like my stuff, I'd really appreciate it if you can subscribe to my channel to keep it going. Cheers!

What are you favourite bearings and why!

Post about the bearings you guys use, I need your opinions! So far I really like the white ZrO2 bearings, feedback and sound are awesome. If I want spin time I'd go for an hybrid and shielded SS bearings for smooth and quiet spins
