Most fidgets move. This one crawls.
INSECT-EXO is the second release in the Skeleton series: a fully mechanical insect built from 23 CNC-machined components, arranged as 8 articulated legs — each split into two independent parts. Under magnetic drive, the legs fire in sequence along a timed track, tapping across your fingers in a slow, rhythmic ripple that is genuinely hard to put down.
**Every detail is machined, not molded.**
The leg-root components are cut in four separate machining orientations on a 5-axis CNC, because symmetry at this scale cannot be faked. The joint between root and claw is hollowed out with an R0.75mm ball-nose cutter and held to a 0.02–0.04mm clearance fit — smooth enough to feel free, tight enough to lock clean.
The track plate is reinforced PEEK, not plastic. It stays rigid under load, so the legs never bind, never twist, never deform mid-stroke — and the push stays glass-smooth release after release. The surface texture is slow-engraved with the same ball-nose tooling: fine, dense, and unmistakably hand-finished.
**Tune it to your hand.**
All 8 toe tips are adjustable across multiple detents, out of the box set to Level 2 — the sweet spot for most users. Grab a T6 Torx and:
1. Loosen slightly to trim the range within the current level.
2. Back off to about 60% to swap to a different level.
Up to 30 magnet mounting holes, inviting you to brainstorm and fully customize your feel through DIY.
Ten minutes with a driver changes the entire feel of the piece.
