Magnetic Pedestal Fidget
A very tiny fidget that can pack a quiet desktop punch of focus. This tiny magnetic ball and pedestal combo has a smooth texture and a very satisfying magnetic movement as the ball is pushed around the various surfaces of the little pedestal. Not quite a spinner, but more like a fidget roller in feel, however when pushed around the outside the ball can complete some short rotations on its own before coming to a stop.
This device is a perfect one for a quiet desktop environment. While it is small, it can easily be held and carried. The Magnetic Pedestal Fidget does have 2 pieces that work together, the ball and the pedestal, which means that it may be less ideal than other fidgets for travel. Though if you’re good at keeping track of the pieces, the size of this fidget would be perfectly fine for a pocket or bag. This fidget is also very quiet, so it is perfect for a quiet office space, a classroom, library, or similar quiet space. Though, it can make metal on metal clacking noises when the ball is separated and then recombined with the pedestal base.

Sound
Appropriate for a low volume space, but not a very quiet space. This spinner will make some quiet noises. The spinning sounds and magnetic slider sounds might not be appropriate for a quiet classroom, library, or quiet work environment without bothering others.
Perfect for a personal office space, a low volume work/class environment, or outdoors. If the environment has other background noises, such as muted conversations, music, or loud air conditioners, the sounds of this fidget may go unnoticed.
Weight
This fidget is fairly lightweight. While metal, its size makes it easily portable.
Size - Base ~23mm x 13mm; Steel ball Diameter 16mm
This fidget is smaller than most devices, though being two parts that are magnetically attached may make it easier to lose or drop one part, making it less functional as a fidget if you do. It will feel small in most hands.
Age Recommendation - 10 y/o +
This fidget is small, and the ball bearing is especially small. Those small parts are not appropriate for small children where they might be a swallow hazard. Otherwise it has few moving parts and would be fine for a child who is able to hold onto them without losing either part.
