What is “Digit Cube?”

Digit Cube is the world’s first versatile Metal Fidget Cube. Precision engineered from solid aerospace grade aluminium, it has six different interchangeable faces to fidget with. The cube is engineered using CNC machining and is virtually indestructible.

Flick, Twist, Rub, Roll, Slide, Pop and Glide your way to relaxation.

The product

Six different faces to fidget with so you never get bored in those tedious meetings or long journeys. 

Plus much much more…

You can ‘mix it up’. The components are precision machined separately so you can move the fidget sections to different faces to find your perfect mix and test the different variations!

How does the Digit Cube work?

Our video shows how the Digit Cube works and ways you can use it. The possibilities are endless and we’re sure you will come up with some interesting ways to use your cube.

Our Story

Hey there! We’re Fidget Digits, driven by our passion for all things fidgety.

Many fidget toys out there are flimsy plastic, not built to last, leading to frequent replacements for our restless fingers.

That’s why we’ve stepped up our game to introduce the world’s first metal Digit Cube. Crafted from solid aluminum, it’s precision-engineered for endless fidgeting.

We’re dedicated to crafting products that not only look cool but also last long and deliver that satisfying fidget experience you crave.

We aren’t just designers here at Fidget Digits. We have over 10 years experience working in a fast paced precision engineering facility. We design, engineer, manufacture and assemble intricate high tolerance components. We work in various industries such as Aerospace, Oil and Gas, Automotive and Medical.

Digit Cube backstory  

The Metal Digit Cube holds the promise of fidgety peace within its cool exterior.

Driven by a passion for improving fidget toys, we prototyped our cube, exploring smooth and textured surfaces, incorporating satisfying clicks with strong magnets, and creating interchangeable parts for versatility. Little did we know this James Bond looking cube would spark a profound transformation.

After months of design, manufacturing, and testing, the durable Digit Cube was born. Stylish and stigma-free, it’s a source of pride in our pockets.

Design and Development 

In February 2022 we started prototyping our vision, machining variations of our Digit Cube to test functionality and sensory benefits.

The Digit Cube had to be practical and not just aesthetically pleasing, needing to be robust enough to handle the continuous sliding, flicking, twisting and no doubt dropping

We went back to the drawing board multiple times to ensure that the design was solid and the overall size and weight was suitable to fit comfortably in our hands.

We turned our design into a 3D model…Machining each component and testing its functionality…

Refining each step as we went…

Until we had a fully functioning prototype ready to share with the world

Designed for the future 

From the beginning of the design process we wanted the features to be interchangeable, so that every removable part could be changed and replaced with “snap-ons”, something we will be introducing as a stretch goal further along in the campaign and for future designs.

As the Digit Cube is precision machined, it makes it easy to design new “snap-ons” and add to the various cube faces. In the future, you will be able to fully customize your Digit Cube and personalise it to your own style. 

The hard case is designed for secure storage. Wherever you go, your Digit cube can come too. 

From idea to reality 

After two years of prototyping and re-design, we finally completed a small batch of fully functioning Digit Cube’s. 

Who is the Digit Cube for?

Great question! Fidgeting can have lots of benefits for individuals, both mentally and physically. Whilst it might be perceived as a distraction or a sign of restlessness, research suggests that controlled fidgeting can offer the following advantages:

Why should I get the Digit Cube ?

The Digit Cube has many variables that make it stand out from other fidget toys. Below are a list of benefits we think make it a solid investment for you. 

Technical specifications

Lets take a closer look 

An incredible amount of time and commitment has been spent on designing and manufacturing the various components that make up this precision engineered, haptic sensory toy. Let’s look in more detail at the components that make the Digit Cube.

Dimensions (mm/Inches) 

Sensory benefits 

There are various sensory benefits that the Digit Cube can assist with. From our research and feedback from our existing customers. 

Where can I use my Digit Cube?

Because of its size and durability, the Digit Cube can be used in pretty much any situation you find yourself in.

But I already have a fidget toy, do I really need the Digit Cube?

There are so many Fidget toys to choose from and many have their own benefits. Having a fidget toy that covers most of your cravings is important, sometimes a pen just doesn’t give you the satisfaction you really want.

Colour choices

We are proud to say that the Digit Cube is the same price, regardless of what colour you select. 

We have natural, black and blue anodised aluminium to choose from. Please order the quantities you want and let us know your colour preference on the survey at the end of the campaign.
