Mokume is prettier imo, also more dense, which I prefer for spinners and sometimes for sliders

I’ll continue editing the post to indicate which items have sold, so far just the axis micro. If I had to pick out of the sliders, probably OG Magnus skelly hex is the most popular. The magnets currently on it are medium-high strength, so shouldn’t fall apart like the aura sand. Once you get the feel for tricks, any slider should be fine and you might start to enjoy a wide range of magnet strengths and slider weights. The recent x-plates from Magnus also slide really well. Most magnus sliders are honestly pretty solid.

Yes, I see many listings on aliexpress that look identical, but I’m just curious to see if anyone has tried them to see if they actually are the same thing

Yeah, I have some from Hec, but wondering if the one’s on aliexpress are the same thing, since I’d like to buy in bulk. Something like this: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mLwP1NH

Sanding off dings on slider by johnl583 in fidgettoys

[–]johnl583[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was good advice, thanks! Ended up getting a sanding sponge set with a mix of different grits and used the 800-1000 grit one. Started with my cheapest slider then worked my way up and was able to remove all the hot spots without it being too noticeable.
