Do you love fidget spinners? Do you love Lego? Why not mix them together?!

Today, we have found an awesome tutorial, on how to make a LEGO Fidget Spinner and wanted to share it with you.

Here are the bricks needed to build one:

Start by putting a 4 x 4 round plate on both the top and bottom of a 6 x 6 round plate. Slide one of the 2 x 2 round tiles (with a round hole) onto the axle. You’ll need an axle that is 3 studs long with a stud on the end.

Part number for 2 x 2 round tile with hole: 15535

Part number for axle: 6587

Place the turquoise round plate on the axle. Add another 2 x 2 round tile to the axle. Attach it to the dark red round plate.

Slide a 2 x 2 round plate (with an x shaped hole) onto the top of the axle. Leave some space so that the spinner is free to turn.

We found that our spinner would spin for a longer time if we added arms. The additional weight seems to give the spinner more momentum.

Place a 2 x 3 plate under the turquoise round plate. Then add a 2 x 2 plate and another 2 x 3 plate.

Add all four arms, and your spinner is ready to go!

To spin it, place one finger on each side as shown below.

We hope you enjoyed building your new spinner! Why not share this, how to, with a friend who you think would enjoy it.
