This Fidget Spinner is also a variant design of the classic Zoetrope.
A video of a few animations is available at https://youtu.be/fCx5waxvbcg
Construction
The bearing is the 608ZZ skateboard bearing that is typical for spinners. It is tapped into place and the bearing caps are also.
The weights can be your choice. The intent was to use (12) 1/4 dia x 1/4 inch length steel rod segments, but I found Neodymium magnets of the same size which are 2-1/2 times as heavy so only 6 of those are needed. They can be de-magnetized by heating. You can also use buckshot, 1/4 inch dia slingshot balls, lead split-shot weights etc and just epoxy them in place.
Preparation
The final printed animation image strip should have an overall aspect ratio of 9:1 with a height of 0.50 inches and a width of 4.50 inches. The image strip should be comprised of 12 images.
