What are you waiting on to arrive...?

They are just a type of fidget toy.
People use them for anything from stress, stopped smoking, not chewing on the nails, increase dexterity in fingers/hand, etc

They have become quite the fad this year and it's hard to walk around the city here without seeing someone spinning one of the many, many versions that are available out there.

Here are a couple of videos showing some uses/designs;

This is the spinner that started it all: "The Torqbar":


These FidgetCraft ones are very popular and sell for about $20:


Usage cases
Here's a couple of people talking about how and why they use them;




Just got an email from the maker w/ a video showing my spinner before he put it in the mail

Another single ring. Based on the case it should be either a 1905 or 1906. Heavy patina so I will use the alum foil baking soda treatment.

 

Waiting on this butterscotch Kent V5B (I assume the number is to indicate the brush size?) brush for $30.

Just won a bid tonight on Ebay for my birthday razor. This is also my first adjustable. M2 Gillette Slim - 1967. It looks in better shape then me in the photos! Earlier this week I received the Grackle DOC from PAA and shaved with it the first time this morning - I liked the feel with Personna Blue blades and although on the mild side, I enjoyed it.

 

Good job on the Slim. Great razor!

2 products from Clubman, only one of which pertains to shaving, though. 1)-Clubman Shave Soap....2)-Kent Pocket comb. I just put in the order a couple hours ago.

 

I broke down today and pre-ordered the Single Edge from Supply Provision. I have officially gone off the deep end into the injector pool.

Hm, spent $89 on this lot.
There are one or maybe two things I really wanted in it..but the rest I am hoping I can just flip once/if I sell off some razors and that should net down the cost of what I'm keeping.

​

 

Wow, that's a beauty

 

I bet you are keeping that fine looking Repeater A type.

Naniwa 1000 traditional hone for bevel setting.

 

Hmm, I wonder if he would take a single digit offer, since the photo is blurry.

He did.

 

Huh?
