It has come to my attention that Google must be funneling CDC ad money directly to MV.
This means government funds for MV's diaper dollars!
What an operator,
all together now...
Praise MV!

Heard mr. Fidget on a newer SWIT the other day. August 97 open lines and linda howe talking about bigfoot. A pretty good show, wasn't on the archives.

   Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I did not have the whole show, just my call. There was some other stuff there for me, and Art's "off the cuff" fidget stuff. I like the part where I specifically instruct him to only put the simplest fidget online, and he just responds "really"... and then goes on to put them all up. As litigious as he seems to be, he'd have sued... if I was him, and him was me.

This pic was on his site before, in line with what I was prepared for... one kind of fidget.
The picture was taken during the broadcast from the phone booth.

Well, if you really feel that way you could always make one with an upside down star or maybe a baphomet goat's head for Hillary. I understand equal time and keeping it fair.

I really think you're letting your politics interfere with a good business opportunity. 

I'd rather not play in traffic, lest I get run over.
Fidgets can be for everybody who wants them.

Looks great, still a functioning Fidget with the gold-plating? I'm thinking much use might flake the gold off and so these are more show pieces. By the way, glad you move was accomplished and you found a job, I hope you get your stuff (fidgets and map cuttings) into a gallery soon. They deserve it. You could even have one of those multimedia type of art pieces- have fidgets and audio of your original calls to Art Bell playing over the speakers on repeat.) I think Fidgets could also help returning soldiers suffering from PTSD or other problems.
ps: maybe Trump will sanction China for dumping cheap, imitation Fidgets on us and you can get your American authentic Fidget business going!
pps: Keep on Fidgeting!

That one (gold) was just sculpture... although being a sphere, it has fidget potential. I guess it's probably half a pair of Baoding balls, one of a kind. My fidget bandwagon is getting some traction, it would be difficult to deny the market in light of this: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/antsylabs/fidget-cube-a-vinyl-desk-toy
   Six million dollars in 50 days, that leaves no doubt in my mind that fidgets are on an upswing. I just have to look around in my hat again for that pesky rabbit. They said fidgets would not scale... I demonstrated scale in the early 90's, craftsman  style:

Wow, nifty!

If it was going to be cost effective I suppose it would have to be really cheap gold or just gold colored like that. I wonder if a T shape could be worked into the design? 

I dunno Dr.³, I've always been fond of the fact that linkey fidgets are not aligned with any particular politics, religion, or sport. It's an "everyone's" device. Statistically, since Hillary got the popular vote... it might be more profitable to sell her fans "consol your loss" fidgets. Nahw, forget it... to heck with politics, I'm out Dr.³.

Quote from: Dr. MD MD on November 14, 2016, 05:05:58 PM
Well, it would have to be gold for a start. 

This was my first "gold dipped" fidget sculpture... I've always wanted to make precious metal fidgets as art/craft. Stamping, and rolling my own components as "treasure" fidgets would be fun. Maybe someday soon... all I need is a mid-four figure deposit...

Headlock? Armpit?

OK, now you're describing Houston, Texas.   

Last time I was there it was nice & humid... if there is such a thing.

I wonder how long attachments are going to last this time.

Quote from: Camazotz Automat on November 14, 2016, 04:08:57 PM
It's almost as if California had you in a holding pattern  headlock and as soon as you left that airspace armpit you were free.

It really is a difficult place to set up shop, as an individual.

Nice to see you Cam!

Will you be doing a commemorative Trump fidget? 

Dr.³ from looks of it... Mr. T's election could be the best thing ever for the fidget industry. Nervous energy can be disrupted by a fidget, and Trump sure is making a lot of people nervous. I'm not sure what a commemorative fidget of a political nature would look like... hmm..

   Well gabbers, I'm working... it's a $10 hr. sales job selling consumer junk from China... again... sigh. It's better than nothing, to be sure. Without some unforeseen miracle... 2016 won't be the year of the (official) fidget. But hey, the knockoffs emulations are now available through thinkgeek . com for more than I ever charged... yea!
   I have a few gifts & orders I will ship before Christmas now, but I could make and ship thousands of fidgets... if I had the time/space/materials & of course... the orders. Maybe I'll do something on kickstarter. Now that I am out of California, I do plan on selling fidgets (and what I would call "real art") online from my forthcoming studio space.

mf

ps. One month until the ground USPS deadline for Christmas... I might get something together before then, I'll post about it if I do.

These rock. Are these new? Are they for sale? Specifically this style?

Not yet, coming soon... I hope.

Looks like MV had another lost attachment debacle roun' here.

Fidget Friday!

In starwars speak, this election is like empire vs. empire... sigh.

Looks like this thread has gone binary.

Many happy returns of the day, Mr. Fidget!! I'm delighted to hear things are going well!  Cheers!

And thank-you too maureen, for the consistent encouragement.

ps. Here is a pic of one of the cool birds from this summer.

Quote from: albrecht on September 23, 2016, 09:21:30 PM
Fun stuff, Mr.Fidget. I never realized they/you made so much press. Some of the best Art shows ever though. Good luck in completing your move and getting your D/L.
ps: keep on Fidgeting!

Thanks albrecht, I'm closer than ever to a studio space. I passed the driving part of the licensing process a couple days ago! Now I just need to pay an issue fee ($60), and I'm good for 8 years. Since I don't have a vehicle right now... no big hurry. Thanks for the consistent encouragement.


ps. I worked this summer with a parrot show, the picture is a Sulfer Crested Cockatoo landing on my arm... birds are fantastic!

Mr. Fidgets Mailbag
Coming Soon(ish)...

And I didn't realize you'd been spelling your own name incorrectly until I saw that article.

My spelling does have room for improvement.

ps. I found out there was a trademark on "figit" back when I first started on this endeavor in the early 90's... the guy (Art Bernstein) who owned it was not amiable to letting me use any derivation, thus I called them "Linkey Fidgets".

I found this in the fidget file, obviously not a current offer:

   It's way past time for an update here. Today is my 48th birthday! Since several months ago a lot has changed for me. I got out of California, and have participated in a few events since. I passed my written drivers test yesterday, and will have my licence back soon. MV sent me some dough for his fidgets, so I used $5 of it to pay for the test. Hopefully  my next gig should provide the needed money to move my LA storage to Oregon... and rent a studio space like I had hoped to.

My situation is improving!


One of the events was at a museum where I took these photos of a bigfoot statue they had.
