    That knot doesn't look too bad. You might want to give it a try before you change it. I have this one and it works pretty well.

    Ordered some of the liquidated stock of Passiflora. Couldn't beat a B&M soap for 12 bucks and it'll never be made again.

    Are those spinners addicting? I may have to try and make one. Do they use ceramic bearings in them?

    Oh they are very addictive :)

    1) This Spin-thread over on TSR will give you a lot of information. Some spinners featured in that thread ranging from a few dollars to several hundred.

    2) Northam Saint over there is showing his progress in making his own - some even made with duct tape,

    3) If I had the ability to machine some of these I'd be in business right away - these things make hotcakes sell at a snail pace in comparison
    Cierrecart over on Instagram doesn't have a CNC machine but a lathe. He's a stay-at-home-dad that makes some when he has the time. He puts them up for sale for about $70-80 and they sell out w/in seconds. Some he auction away and they can go for up to $2-300. He's in SoCal.

    4) This video is an interesting introduction to why certain spinner are of a certain design (center of mass, etc) and the difference in bearings;


    5) Join us on the Spin thread. I'd love to see a spinning bunny :)

    I have been coveting other user's Injectomatics for a while now, and only seeing rather roached out examples up for sale. I finally found one today! It is just minty!

    Truth be told...I've actually been secretly testing @twhite 's spinner. Code named "The Bunny Hop" or TBH-V1.
    Here it is with me at a local coffee shop to show a sense of scale a bit. It might be hard to see but there's a very nice touch of a Bunny logo on the bearing finger grip. Spin time is approx 35 mins.
