Heard that the woman who invented it couldn't afford the 300 quid to patent it (not sure if true or not)

I admit to being slightly uneasy at adults playing with children's toys.
Like adults with skateboards.
I've recently seen grown women lugging these around. Neatly blowing the theory that women have more sense out of the water.

Dad, can't we just buy one from Argos?
No son, they have superfluous bearings WHICH I WILL NOT STAND FOR. Now get back to your technical drawings.

Re: Fidget Spinners

Of course they are utterly pointless. Obviously a marketing ploy from bearing manufacturers (hint: the outer three bearings add nothing other than weight and aesthetic, no need for precision components at all)
But I recently spent a very pleasurable weekend making a pair of them with my kids, using some old skateboard/scooter bearings and some materials and tools found in my shed. They turned out great, they loved them and along the way learned quite a lot about mechanics, drawing, planning, using tools, patience, etc. etc.
Time well spent.

The current 6 month fad. Like Loom bands were a couple of years ago. My 10 year loves girl loves it.
Just wish I could come up with it! 6 months and you're set up for life...
Any ideas?

Am I right in saying that the majority of the tricks involve throwing the fidget spinner to yourself and successfully catching it?
It's hardly a yo-yo or a hacky sack is it.
