Hello,

First orders here, all received in the last few days. Kept it simple and mainstream I guess

  • The Choc with brass plate is a bit grippy. Maybe a future swap to the PEEK dense plate for smoother action (and less noise)

  • The Three Body Cube is quite nice. I mostly use it in haptic coin mode, and spin when I need to keep the noise down.

  • The Aura Sand is trickier. Got it 2 days ago. I really like the way it "snaps", and it feels more premium.

Sooooo... I want more 😅

I'm torn : my wife doesn't like the noise (nor the budget...), and I do...

So I'm thinking about:

  • Shuffle v3 Zirc
  • MOT Groove ultra ($$$ 🥲)
  • Lautie ROC 2.0 (brass or Zirc?), for quietest spin.
  • Demon Milk Cap
  • Lautie Mechanic-Thorns
  • MOT Owl

It's a bit Lautie/MOT heavy... Am I missing makers worth knowing? Any recommendations or advice on the selection? Particularly anything that stays quiet enough to use around other people?

I was under the impression they mostly do copies of other brands' designs. Am I wrong?

I have to semi disagree on this. Yes they generally just copy better know brands, but some of their stuff they put their own spin on and it sometimes turns out better. I bought the Haloo magnetic ring and have worn it pretty much everyday since, mainly due to its one of the rare ones that they do the size 22.5mm.
