I’m not sure how it happened. I guess I’m part raccoon and I just can’t resist shiny shit. I only have two hands and it’s dumb to use two pocket knives at one time so I usually rotate and carry a different one same with my zippo lighters I can only use one at a time and yo-yo’s. There are some talented people out there who can do the double yo-yo but I’m not one of them somehow ended up with the drawer full of mini yo-yos. They’re fun. They’re engaging an ancient toy that needs no batteries to keep me engaged for hours. I work construction so my knives see duty. They don’t just look there pretty well most of the time they do anyway I don’t think there’s any shame in having a collection of nice things, especially if they get used. I got a new knife coming in the mail , which knife should I use to open the box for my new knife? This is the way.

This Umburry haptic spin coin is a really great fidget. Good for a 5 minute(ish) timer on spin or a rotating clicker. It’s perfectly spin balanced on one of the magnetic indexes but I had to spin ,watch and advance a click and spin and watch again and on till I found the sweet spot. Though only slight flutter at the worst index . The nickel bronze has nice heft. This is in near new condition but Imma give it the pocket patina . This ones getting used .

My datura has never been happier. So poisonous but smells so sweet .

This magnetic flex flashlight holder is the cats meow the bees knees for lighting up my workspace. I’m working at a famous Colorado landmark and the inside of it is stuff full of 13 levels of steel scaffolding and the structure is all steel so I can stick that little bad boy just about anywhere give myself some photons to work with. I’m shining the Emisar D1 with the 4500K 90 CRI LED.

Spinning coin spinning like a regular coin I love the sound it makes.

Some spinning coins for your consideration. The two big ones are Metonboss tungsten with timascus center coin and tungsten carbide bearings . The copper one with the blue anodized titanium core is a Harupa Hound Space Schipp with a silicon nitride bearing. Next is a zirconium spin coin by Metonboss with an oil slick finish and lab grown ruby bearing. Then there’s the little superconductor spinner with nitride pivot , not sure of the maker , and finally a mosaic timascus spinning coin with ruby center. On the plate is a Butterfield machine flat top brass Indian head. These are some of my favorite toys and I’m 50 something. We don’t stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing. Be well y’all.

This is made from MTB chain links and a marble. I had to search my jar for a marble that fit perfectly. Was not expecting it to be such a fun easy fidget top

This is a flat top I made with a vintage marble to play on the job site . If your sound is on , the three horn blasts means evacuation. Turned out to be just a drill.

Got lucky and scored. This was made by the MetonBoss. It’s about a quarter sized diameter but thick as two It’s easy to get a couple minutes spin time even though it’s tiny. Brilliant three tone mosaic damascus with a lab grown ruby sphere as the pivot bearing. Love the spinning coins stemless spin tops or whatever they’re called.

First time having a top
balance after the spin stopped. It’s the water drop top that looks like a drop frozen in time.

I paired a ram mount handlebar clamp base with a standard desk clamp base and a short link and it makes an infinitely adjustable stout flashlight holder for hands free illumination.the light is a convoy M21E with LHP73B emitter in 5K. The handlebar clamp fits my D maglite just barely but holds strong with 4 D batteries. The base clamp will fit on a 2X4. Ram mount for the win .
