Fidget Cube a Vinyl Desk toy
« on: September 12, 2016, 07:21:16 pm »
one of Kickstarter's most successful campaigns, with an unrealistic timeline (I guess nothing new here)

The timeline is a bit tight indeed... but not completely impossible given how simple a gadget it is...

Bane of my existence. People in offices actually need more ways to make noise and clicking sounds.

I know the guy who certainly needs one. Works at one of the facilities where I fix equipment occasionally. That bastard fidgets with my tools as soon as I turn my back :rant:

I'm not too confident it will be a high quality product for the price they're asking.  It needs to have pretty good materials, tolerances and fit+finish to survive lots of actuations without wearing out.  Good switch design is a whole art and science unto itself.

I think I'll stick with the easy mobility of my gear ring :)
