    In an attempt to bring this back on track, I got an Atwood Bermuda Triangle yesterday. The plan was to make it part of my keychain setup. Then I couldn't put it down. Threw a bead on it not it is a fiddle toy.

    After seeing this thread I went to the local bead store and made three Belgeri's... I'll have to post pic sometime. I want to figure out some sort of ball bearing fiddle toy... Hmmm.

    I used a couple of tiny sockets for one, nice weight.

    I used some nice sized glass beads, came out neat looking, Want to try with something more industrial, like sockets next. I saw the pic you posted of them :cool:

    I have been looking at these since they very first came out. I may end up breaking down and getting one now that he has re-released them and I might not have to pay as huge of a price for it....

    It is a great little to spin around and keep fidgety hands busy.

    Is yours one of the new ones with the side ridges? Or were you able to score one of the old ones?

    One of the new ones. I actually like that there is no cap lifter on them.

    Was trying to decide if I liked that look or not....one thing I did notice is that the cap lifter always looked backwards to me on these....almost like it would be difficult to get the leverage to open.....bottle openers I have....fidgety hands toys, I need! I think I may have to start tracking down a good deal on one of these....what kind of bead did you put on? I am thinking damascus would be nice....

    They worked "alright"

    I'm usually sitting in class. (I'm in college) and they make some clicking noises. Less than pen but enough to annoy my classmates.

    Nice! It's a little steel champ.

    I have a pair of beads coming I may make a belgeri out of, since i was never around a flat stable surface for the use of a top.....

    I need something to fidget with that isn't sharp or bright or pokey.

    But it'll dent the dice instead.
