It is highly necessary to have a proper design of the spinner such that the center of mass is in such a way it can balance the entire the body.

1.

For this, add the Lego pins to corner of the Lego triangular beam as shown in the finger. Choose the correct triangular beam and the wheels which represents the ball bearing of the commercial fidget spinner.

The weight at the corners of the Fidget spinner must be symmetric such that center of mass is uniform.

2.

To the pins add the 1x2 Lego beam facing outward. A support to the beam can be provided if the beam displaces itself from the position,if required.
