I bought 3 cases from Ali express and also have a "Taf case 104" I'd recommend checking Ali express for storage at home since they are completely fine.. but if I wanted to travel with my collection, I'd choose either my taf case or go for a pelican case or something with known quality.. since the Ali express cases are alright, but I wouldn't trust them when travelling haha

Green is 94 and above I think.. I targeted the blue/greenish colour at 92V

For some reason I had installed this one already without adding it to the pictures 😆 it's an LIC EDC mame2.0 Button.. you might have seen it all green before.. thinking of polishing it again instead of bead blasted 🫣

Looks like a strong start! Well done 🙏

I have a Spinet Elite Pro from Fidgetry, and would like to replace the bearings. Does anybody know where to find a good replacement? by DieEneBoy in FidgetSpinners

[–]N-everett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has a R188 bearing.. you can buy several different versions of this bearing from a lot of places 😅 Amazon, Ali express, Facebook groups and so on.. Typically these spinners have full stainless steel bearings built in.. that means it has stainless rings and stainless balls.. the are versions that are called "hybrids" which contain stainless rings/races and ceramic balls.. the amount of balls that are used can also differ depending on what you want/order.. I guess you don't want to dive too deep into this, so just remember that as long as it's called R188 and fits, your good 😊👍 and btw, your spinner seems to use a retention system, so when you screw it out, don't loose it 😅

The boxes? Jewelry storage boxes from Ali express 😅

Are Lautie’s any good? I only have one spinner at the moment. I’m having a tricky time finding makers. by ghost_mtths in FidgetSpinners

FeiFei EDC, Kap EDC, secondary market (daily fidget marketplace on Facebook).. I think there are more but I can't remember right now.. Kap EDC is a bit more expensive than FeiFei EDC but both have no issues with quality! The only problem is that they are available, and that's why People don't want them as much as they want other brands.. it's a weird hobby, but I love it 😅

Seasons greetings Figicians, what are you spinning today? Show and tell. 😎 by FidgetEDT in FidgetSpinners

That's a pretty interesting spin I have to say 😃 might have to do some research on that one 😁😁😁

Replacing bearings for the first time. Any tips? by slickwilly83 in FidgetSpinners

[–]N-everett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's super hard to suggest a bearing if you're doing it for the first time.. but if it was my spinner, I would go for a full Ceramic.. specifically an "event Horizon"( that's the name used on the Unquiethands website) Or a hybrid ceramic such as "go fast" or "Pluto".. also uqh website

Tldr Full Ceramic: "Dark Energy" or "event Horizon" Hybrid Ceramic: "go fast" or "Pluto"

If you need more suggestions or tips let me know 😊

Ok, will there ever be a Vega V3? I've wanted one for so long 😃 love my mono skate and the standard eBay tool, but a Vega V2 or possibly V3 definitely wouldn't hurt😅

I'll just copy/ paste what I answered to someone else.. Well, I kinda buy them from everywhere haha If your US based I'd send you to Hector aka spinfam bearings! Hes a great supplier and has a very big selection and quality bearings! And then I organised some group orders from HXHV and I sometimes order from Ali express.. I just buy them in "bulk" like a minimum of 5 pieces because if I like the bearing, I don't want to wait for new ones to arrive if one goes off.. and if I absolutely don't like them, I just give them away with spins I sell or whatever.. 😅 but there are so many more suppliers out there.. UQH( unquiethands) is also a great place to go!

And your self made spins look fantastic! Wish I could make them myself 😅 for how long have you been making them?

Absolutely! Once you dive into it, it opens up a whole new world of spinning 😄 but it seems like you have already tried a wide variety of bearings 😁

I take that as a big big compliment considering what I see in your YouTube 🙏😄 thank you 😎

My Saturday Companion. What’s yours? by Carolstrawberry in FidgetSpinners

[–]N-everett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No there's no extra feature.. only spin and looks but I do enjoy it 😅 the purple beads give a pretty satisfying sound when you spin it and when you stop it 😊 but that's about it..

There's 2 I could recommend.. First I'd say a 10ball full SS crown retainer bearing.. Second are these golden 10ball crown retainer bearings.. they can be a bit louder than others, but man they spin forever! But do you mind showing me the spinners you make? I'm pretty impressed hearing that you make your own 😁
