I was cleaning out one of my desk drawers, and I found something I had completely forgotten about. I could have totally been the one to start the fidgit spinner craze, LOL. I put this together several years ago out of boredom, and then came to the realization many people have come to recently. It’s entertaining to play with for about 90 seconds. Maybe one of my kids wants it.

1. Make more.

2. Pitch to the assholes on Shark Tank.

3. ???

4. Profit (and buy a Ferrari).

It’s like a super bearing... for highly efficient rolling. There’s a marketing gimmick in there somewhere you could exploit.

5. Go bankrupt maintaining said Ferrari

I bet you could still sell that on ebay as a fidget spinner for a surprisingly large sum.

I think you mean etsy, because this is clearly art as well as pop culture!

That’s very satisfying. How long will it spin?

Looks like a little over 4:00.

That seems like a very dull 4:00 video...

One of the dudes is shown getting out of a Ferrari during the intro. Make the deal “your Ferrari and 5 years of insurance and maintenance cost for 100% of the company.”

Lol, fair enough. I found a can of compressed air and it spun for well over 10 minutes. Maybe I’ll make an incredibly boring video tomorrow.
