Hi Guys!
I've been thinking about this for a while now and thought it'd be a nice idea to find out your response.
I'm planning on making a spinner that looks like this:
It'll be like any regular spinner except for the IFG part. I will be avoiding welded parts as much as possible to maximise durability and aesthetics. I'm a stickler for finish and this product wont be any different.
@Abhijeet: Is it alright for me to use the name? I don't intend to sell it for profit. Anybody interested will be provided the plans free of charge or a finished product at cost price.

Looks good.. But the IFG nomenclature is probably a no-no....

I've asked Abhijeet to ponder over the idea.. Lets see.
However there is always the option of making it with our IFG handles. Mine will be the easiest!

Something like this:
But this will turn out more expensive as each of the alphabets will have to be individually cut.
Also, it will take longer as I have to work out the weights too. Else it wont spin.

I forgot to mention. The design will be so that the legs can be folded up, so that the whole thing can lie flat and will take up minimum space.

I would love to have one too.. especially when this is the joy season of giving and showing care
However.. I guess this is still not a 'For Sale' or 'Up for Grabs' post... and shall wait for this to get more commercialized. I would only like to suggest that the target dots be a little more separated:)

Hi Guys!
Thanks for the enthusiasm shown. But its not finalized yet. I'm waiting for the mods to have a say first. Being the holiday season, I'm sure everybody's busy with family.
Tenx, duly noted. Dont worry, you'll get a sneak preview
we can incorporate design changes then.

Hey Mo,
Why dont you put a white background pellet trap behind the spinner. That way you can collect the lead pellets and melt them and make lead shots for muzzle loading guns and weights for anglers. in about 25 yrs you will recover the cost of the spinner. hehehee
