Do you have problems focusing? Staying in the trade?

If only the middle piece was a spring bound button connected in some fashion to an opposing magnet looped around the outside of the spinner, where the prongs also have magnets, it would theoretically make it spin for a very very long time

similar to this guy's free energy magnet computer fan

At first i didn't like it, but it's growing on me. I found a way to spin it with just one hand which lets me use the mouse with the other. I like to let it spin down and then reset it to a fast speed. There's some zen like quality about it if you can just spin it till it completes over and over.

Seems good! Thanks for this @Itchymoku!


I used to accomplish this in a very weird manner a long time ago!

When I first learnt about them I thought the same as OP, it is great to kill time. There are some really nice one for $50, that spins for 5+ minutes. Also you can annoy your dog with it:

I just know that after I bought one I sit it at my desk and still use it here and there. If you are fidgeting with stuff then you should get one of these just because it's high quality fidgeting. Why waste time with low quality fidgeting like pens and stupid stuff that don't really have any movement.

I have one. My record is 8 minutes and 29 seconds on a single spin (start to full stop). I reckon bit of oil and a few practice starts will get me to 10 minutes.
