Fidget Spinners DIY – 10 Designs

Ok, so we have gone a little CRAZY of Fidget Spinners here at Red Ted HQ. It all started with a “delayed” Fidget Spinner order.. and the belief of my children that I can make anything (hahahaha I have trained them well). So last Friday, I shared with your a super simple DIY Fidget Spinner Without Bearings (because we had no bearings, and neither do most of my readers). Over the weekend, we decided to make some more Easy Fidget Spinners – this time the “Tri Fidget Spinner” version. Yes, in essence they were/ are the same, but I added a free Fidget Spinner DIY template to that post to make life easier for you. IT ALSO got me thinking about the SCIENCE of Fidget Spinners.. and how Fidgets Spinners make a great Science Fair Project! There are so many elements from Centrifugal Forces, to Frictions and Optics, even sound that you can investigate with figdet spinners (I talk about the Science of Fidget Spinners here)… it made me think.. you guys need a WHOLE SET of DIY Fidget Spinners – a round up of the best and hopefully easy Fidget Spinner DIY ideas out there.. so I pulled together this list. They are quite “wide an varied”. Personally my favourite are of course our own no bearing Fidget Spinners, but I also LOVE the LEGO Fidget Spinner DIYs.

Oh.. and unless you are using them for the Science Fair.. here a 5 Reasons to Ban them from the classroom!
